Investment Banking Mock Coffee Chat

“Julius gave great feedback and advice on coffee chats which is something that I am working on. I loved how he discussed about his interest in health and fitness as that is something that I am definetely passionated about as well. We were able to connect well on a personal level. Overall I loved learning about his experience at Citi and I was able to learn many things.”

Investment Banking Mock Interview

“Iason is super knowledgeable, gives very practical feedback, he was able to walk me through how to answer all of the behaviourals for my Evercore interview, we also had the chance to review some technicals as well. His insights on the markets and commercial awareness were top notch and gave me a very clear idea of what to say in an interview to stand out since those questions are starting to become more and more important in today’s day an age. He went well over time and helped me clarify anything ”
