Broke down the secondaries market in a way I hadn’t seen anywhere else.
This course broke down the secondaries market in a way I hadn’t seen anywhere else. The GP-led and LP-led walkthroughs made the structures and conflicts finally click for me

Private Equity Course Review
Solid course that gives a good overview for beginners on the PE/VC industry and prepares you well for interviews with the industry primers and interview question guides. The course also includes a couple of example LBO model tests that prepare you well for what to expect in a larger stage interview. All in all no regrets and would recommend to others.

I finished my consulting session with my mentor which was amazing
I finished my consulting session with my mentor which was amazing. He helped me to understand more of the professional development and MBA application. Many thanks for the WSO to provide the platform to connect us.
Great course
Incredible course. It is easy to follow along and has quizzes to keep you honest along the way. I would strongly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn Excel while not being bored out of their minds like some other providers.

He was efficient and rewrote my resume ahead of time
He was efficient and rewrote my resume ahead of time. He was willing to get on a call to discuss in great detail the notable aspects I would like to include in my resume and also provided some insights on the industry along the way.
Pricey, but worth it to have a resume you can continue to build on.
Pricey, but overall great service and in my opinion would have done it again. The person that worked with me to write my resume was top notch and had an impressive background from IB to private equity was able to leverage that experience to write a solid resume for me. We hopped on two/three calls. The first call we just walked through every job function I had and I described to him what my day to day ways and a few key projects I was involved in from internship/jobs/ and activities was able to use all the key jargon and formating that IB firms are looking for. I come from a commercial / credit banking background so I have always had a hard time in putting my experience in terms of IB related roles.
I will say tho I would write down every thing that you have done small or large in experiences in order to have a larger list to pull from and although your resume mentor you are paired with to decided, which would likely be better to throw on the ole resume.
For background, I have written 100 different versions of my resume and have always thought I had a solid written resume, but he definitely was able to make my resume stand part.
You may have to wait for replies, but have to understand these folks are still working 70+ hours a week and this is side hustle for them, so definitely don't expect a two turnaround time.

Helped with understanding how to build and work in an M&A model
As a practitioner, I didn’t have to do any M&A models. This course helped with understanding how to build and work in an M&A model which is great if you are applying for corporate development jobs or dealing with strategic acquirers in your engagement.

Mostly helpful and entertaining content. They could use some more moderation to remove the often blatant racism and antisemitism that pops up.
