WSO Testimonials

WSO provides transparency and access to finance and consulting careers unattainable elsewhere. This is THE career advisor schools should be directing kids to learn about career options and interview prep

Hey Patrick, I wanted to thank you for being my mentor throughout my journey and update you that I got a Private Equity Summer Analyst position at Rand and Co Holdings in Atlanta for Summer 2025

Fantastic honest feedback and insights

Hey Patrick - Just wanted to update you, I got both internships offers for this fall! One is a position at a sort of small scale PE/buyout shop and another is at a boutique investment bank in SF

Well structured in digestible chunks. Voice over is also an appropriate speed to listen to 1.5x speed.

The only complaint I have is that the quizzes sometimes have ambiguous questions/answers and the function to show correct answers wasn't working properly at the time.

WSO has been a great resource for consulting interviewing and questions. It’s tough to find legitimate reviews from folks actually in the industry.

This is an excellent course that combines excel training with financial statement modeling. Being in IB for 3 years, the fin model is where you get called out the most since it feeds the valuation tabs. Great course, very engaging and does not waste your time.

Practicing questions made a bigger difference for me than rereading the curriculum.

"Happy to report I recently started at a newly formed healthcare and tech focused merchant bank called [redacted for anonymity]. The strategic advisory side of the business is led by the former vice chairman of Morgan Stanley M&A and the principal investing side by former [redacted for anonymity]. I have been splitting my time evenly between the two verticals, and am now fully partaking in traditional PE style investment processes.

Thanks again for your support and guidance as I navigated the buy-side waters."

Very knowledgeable and helpful

My mentor was incredibly helpful throughout my session. He came in prepared with topics to go over, gave personal constructive feedback, and was very transparent about the industry. To sum it up, my mentor had tremendous industry experience and intellectual curiosity himself, and he gives solid advice to anyone curious/looking to break into the field.

Thanks so much WSO!

The resume review was amazing. I was paired up with a very knowledgeable recruiter from an investing firm that was able to make the resume using their industry knowledge. I filled out an emailed questionnaire and had a rough draft of the resume in a few days. Then we emailed back and forth a few times to make changes. I’m very pleased with the final product. My old resume that I made using my school suggested template didn’t lead to any interviews, but when I used the new WSO provided resume I started getting several interviews and landed my first investing job. The service is well worth the investment, with a couple hundred dollars leading to a six figure income. I couldn’t recommend the service any more.
