WSO Testimonials

Hey Patrick, I'm guessing you know this already but wanted to personally inform you that I have received an offer for a quant research internship at Centiva Capital. Thank you for all the support and resources at WSO!

Very good platform to learn the recruiting process and different jobs in the industry.

I had a great and seamless experience with my reviewer. Our first contact established a credible background and provided a good base for our relationship and future conversations. When speaking on the phone and over email, I could tell he was interested in helping me and cared about guiding me to a place where I was comfortable and confident. Not only was he very knowledgeable when reviewing my resume, but he also took every opportunity to share his knowledge about the professional world and help me learn. He always took the time to ask questions and gather information in order to understand my experiences, skillset, and interests. It was great to work with him.

The Hedge Fund interview course was outstanding. I know the Product/Course name says IB Interview course, but that is because the HF interview course was not an option. The course is laid out in multiple sections and requires about an hour a day to complete it. There is comprehensive materials to serve as supplemental materials as well. I would highly recommend this course for those interested in Hedge Funds.

A comprehensive interview course covering key parts of the interview (technicals, fit interview, case, financial modeling, networking, recruiting, etc.). I particularly benefitted from the LBO modeling trainings which do a great job of walking through step-by-step how to create LBOs starting from simple models to more complex models.

WSO is a great community of Finance professionals (and hopefuls). I’ve been a member of this community for years and it’s a fantastic resource for information as well as a great place for networking.

I particularly enjoyed my sessions with this mentor; I did an hour session that was broken up into two 30 minute sessions. He was happy to conduct the sessions this way which was meaningful to me because I was able to take his advice from the first session and act upon it and go over it with the follow-up session. I am grateful because it meant taking up more of his time but he was willing to with no problem. He also gave great insight into how to take your background and frame it in a way that looks great in terms of you searching for employment. He also knew how to conduct and drive the sessions in a way that would be most helpful to the mentee. I can't say enough great things about him. He gave great, tangible advice that could be used right away. Please consider him no matter what you're looking for.

No other website compares if you’re interested in a finance / IB / financial services discussion forum.

I can't recommend WSO's resume service enough for students or candidates in the workforce looking to lateral.

I came from a small, non-target school in Texas and was working in credit in Houston after already trying to break into Investment Banking. After two years of credit experience, I was trying again to break into Investment Banking with little luck at first; however, I decided to invest in WSO's resume service and I'm not being hyperbolic by saying it was a game changer. This service enable me, as a student with an above average GPA from a non-target and no Investment Banking internship, to break in. Most people you'd speak with would consider this a certifiably low-probability outcome.

Also, to add a little more detail, I was paired with a resume coach who very diligent and took the time to understand what specific positions I was looking for, down to the finer details such as industry coverage and firm size. After my resume coach implemented edits, the finished product was night and day difference from the old version I put together as a student.

Couldn't recommend the product enough, it was truly a game changer for me.

Best Regards,
John Owen

Just accepted a full-time Analyst position at a BB bank in London.
WSO was an essential part of my preparation that guided me through the early stages of my career and university education.

It is a great course. I have been studying over the last months all the courses, including DCF modeling, M&A modeling and others.

The theory explanation is straight to the point and clear. I could understand all the concepts to build a complex financial modeling.

Currently I'm working at a M&A company in Brazil, and what I've learnt in this course is very useful for my daily tasks.

I do recommend this course.

Annie was a great presenter. She was organized, structured, and moved through the content in a logical and natural way. She checked for our understanding and covered the most important concepts in the workshop su we could complete the rest on our own. Highly recommended
