Accelerate Your Finance Career

Each and every topic of valuation modeling course has been explained very well with hands on practice.The best course for those who pursue their carrer in finance and specially investment banking

Great stuff and amazing insights, just that it seems to be hyper focused on the US at the moment and it would be nice to see more intl opportunities

Before this guide, I was lost on the technical and behavioral aspects of the IB interview process. This course goes beyond the typical 3 statement, walk me through DCF questions that most guides give you.

The best thing about the course was the amount of veteran insight the instructors provide. That invaluable advice helped me gain confidence in the process, which lead to me landing at a BB!!

Thanks Curtis & WSO!

Great community- great resource for any aspiring finance professional.

I like the community. When I had a question back in high school about financial careers, the replies were very helpful. A few of the threads that I looked at helped me get a good impression of the field. I'm not as active anymore since my career focus is on technical skills at the moment.

Really useful information for recruiting and interviewing in the investment banking industry. It also good website to gain insight about various banks and teams so you know which ones to target.

The only downside is something outside of the website's control but there is some misinformation out there. Find the good content and it's all good but this this isn't neccesarily the easiest to find.

I was an investment banking analyst for 3 years and now work in private equity on the fundraising / IR side. WSO was particularly helpful for me when I was 1) considering pursuing IB as a career path while I was in college and 2) mentally preparing / anticipating my internship. I did not find the site especially useful once I was an analyst, although to be fair, I didn't really spend time trying to use the site much. The main exception to that was occasionally checking top posts when certain headlines caught my attention and I typically enjoyed reading a post or two a week. The other exception was trying to use the site when recruiting for PE in my first year as an analyst / deciding if I should recruit on-cycle or not.

Overall, I think that this is a good website, particularly because of more senior community members who are willing to give their time to help guide new and incoming analysts. One thing that always frustrated me though was not having credits to like or dislike a comment on a thread.

Loved the platform, helped me gain insights into the industry.

The site is full of extremely relevant and useful information. Sometimes, the comments can be a little offbase and sometimes borderline toxic. Reminds me of the edgier parts of Reddit. Overall, great site with great information.

WSO has been a great resource for many years. I've used their resume writing and mentor services which have had a great impact to my professional career.
