Thanks WSO! SA Offer

Been on this site awhile, just an awesome resource as well as MI. Bought the technical guides from both. Practiced and studied my ass off for interviews. Went through around 40 interviews with 15-20 banks (including most of the BBs and some elite boutiques), got the offer I wanted. Wanted to thank everyone and if any one has any questions about networking, interviews, superdays, or technicals I'll be up for answering them. Man it feels great and such a relief.

1 boutique, one bb (winter/spring) 3.54/semi-target/econ and poli

about 70% of interviews through ocr and resume drop, rest through networking/random online apps

you'd be surprised how many strangers are willing to help you out, networking was key

 

Congrats, all the hard work paid off

I already purchased the WSO guides, and they are great, but all bias and BS aside, who has the better guides: WSO or M&I?
