An Unparalleled Resource for a Career in Finance
I've been a member of WSO since 2011 when I was a freshman in college determined to turn a passion for investing into a career on Wall Street (holy s**t, has it really been 10 years already?). I was a WSO rep for my university for a semester…

Some trolls, but this site has helped me cut through the crap and figure out what’s what in terms of banks, opportunities, and interview prep. Also, if this were just for the humor I’d give it a 5.

100% recommended for careers in finance
Super useful site where you can find massive info about careers in finance. Despite most users and info is US-related, most of the content is applicable to EU. I purchased the most basic online Excel course (the one thar is ca. 20$) and value for money could not be better. Good job and carry on!

WSO Mentors - 30 Minutes Review - 2025-06-25
Three years ago, I was skeptical about whether mentorship would actually help me transition from Corporate Banking to a Private Credit Associate role. I knew it wouldn’t be easy—even in a hot market (circa 2021). Thankfully, I decided to invest in mentorship before starting interviews. Speaking with someone in the industry proved invaluable; they helped me sharpen my thinking around credit investing and offered several ways to effectively communicate how my background aligned with the role.
I just got an offer!
Hey great news - I just got an offer for this position! It's like an internal M&A team/ corp dev role. Definitely a better opp than where I'm currently at I had my final round today with the CIO and on the call he said they will extend an offer and HR will be in touch this afternoon

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