WSO Testimonials

WSO is a great website offering many resources (particularly for young professionals/students) looking to excel in the field of finance. From useful community discussions about different career or educational paths to salary/interview question data points, WSO offers a lot of information to anyone who is willing to look for it. In my opinion, it's unlikely I would be where I am today career-wise had it not been for stumbling upon WSO as a college student and absorbing much of the information and advice which is found on the site. One area where I could see improvement is a sorting option on the forum to further highlight top comments (beyond the banana awards) and hide any which do not add value.

It's really great to see that there is one platform that brings like minded finance people together. We are able to share not only the technical matters but also the personal, psychological difficulties we face while doing our jobs.

I got accepted into Goldman Sachs Veterans Integration Program.

My go-to place when I was preparing my management consulting job interviews.

Great community, very helpful people here. I met some folks here who eventually became my close friends.

The features was easy to use, could be better if it is on mobile app.

Highly recommended for anyone looking for IB or consulting jobs.

Great community, great discussion, great products. If you work in finance, WSO is a must.

This platform has been tremendously important to me. First as a high school kid just trying to understand the industry, and now, ~5yrs into my career it is still insightful. I'm transitioning to the point where I provide answers, rather than ask the questions, as a way to give back to the community.

The only improvements would be around tech. The website has a number of bugs, especially with commenting. I also am not the biggest fan of anonymous posting (I understand the merits, but there are some major drawbacks).

Tim was fantastic!
He took the time to explain the rationale behind his feedback, and provided multiple options to finalizing my profile. Tim also went above and beyond by sharing his take on how to think about constructing my TMAY which caused us to go beyond the 30-minute mark.
Again, I am super appreciative of his time and input! First time we chatted, but it certainly will not be the last.

Great session as always

Have been using the site for a little over a year now. It’s honestly amazing how much valuable information I’ve been able to glean from the site and it’s users for free. It has helped me get my career on the right track with actionable advice, and provided tons of laughs and entertainment as well. Love the community.

Really helpful!

Good background information + helped me better understand and break into the finance landscape as someone with no experience. good starting point that's easy to build off of, and helps form a sense of community.

Peter gave me a great, honest mock. Will continue to work with him.

In depth and comprehensive. Extremely useful for finance interview prep
