WSO Testimonials

WSO has been a very helpful resource to me, and many others members of it's community. It's definitely worth checking out!

Before joining investment banking, everyone goes on and on about excel but I spent the vast majority of my time as an analyst in PowerPoint. This course helps you step your game up.

I entered the PE world from a non-traditional background from a semi-target school without any family connections or understanding of the broader finance industry. WSO was my first resource to learn about IB, PE, etc. and served as an important community for me to learn about the industry. It was also a place where we spent a lot of free time during down time at work. WSO has evolved over time into a sophisticated ed tech platform with many valuable training programs. Huge fan and forever grateful to WSO, Patrick, and the whole community. Highly recommend.

WSO is a great platform to connect students and people in the industry. During my time I connected and met with multiple people that helped me along my journey and I’m now an ex banker and in private equity, so WSO has gotten my dream careers twice!

Exceptional and clear, pointing direction to actionable areas of improvement and supported reasoning.

It was fantastic - thank you!

Hey Patrick, I have already received 2 full time offers. One from a consulting firm focussing on financial services, and one from a family office in Saudi Arabia as an Investment Analyst. Thank you so much for your help

The mentor was absolutely amazing - she evolved a resume review into a full-packaged guidance for recruiting strategy and how I should frame myself for the whole upcoming recruiting process. This was the best 30 minutes of advice I got so far.

Hey Patrick! Sorry for the late reply, but I wanted to let you know that I recently accepted a Valuation Analyst offer at Monroe Capital in Chicago. It's been almost two years, but I finally landed an offer and made the pivot back into finance! Just wanted to say thank you again for setting up the Academy program. It has helped me so much over the past year with recruiting, connecting with so so many amazing mentors, and the various courses you offer are really helpful in preparing for all of my interviews

Just wanted to update you on my recruiting process - I just accepted an offer. Really want to thank you for all of your help. I would definitely have done way worse in my interviews without your guidance on how to phrase my past roles. Thanks again and super excited for this summer.

I just wanted to thank you again for your guidance and assistance in perfecting my resume. Before receiving your help, I was extremely uneasy about my resume and was worried about even allowing my older sister to look at it. You helped me take the things I have already accomplished and turned them into something that truly allows me to put my best foot forward. I am especially thankful for how you made sure I was happy through the numerous drafts and rapid email exchanges. Not only did you help perfect my resume, but you also made me feel comfortable thinking of you as a mentor. I’d certainly want to work with you again in the future if I ever feel the need.

Thanks for everything.

Great reviewer and access to a responsive team
