Great service, helped me out a lot
Th resume review service helped me out immensely. I was paired with someone who was able to provide objective feedback about my strengths, weaknesses and opportunities. They helped me rework my formatting and overall improved the quality of my work experience which I realized I wasn’t conveying as best as I could. It was critical to me getting interviews and an offer in my new role.

During the review process on my resume, my reviewer had been very responsive to my questions. He went over my resume bullets by bullets and asked specific questions to make sure to improve every single line. He also gave professional advice both on resume and job positions related questions. He is a very responsible reviewer. I highly recommend him as a reviewer in the WSO team.
Well worth the money
Well worth the money, plenty of good material in there and excellent practice tests. Definitely helped with recruiting although I didn't go for the PE route in the end, would highly recommend.

The reason for 4 stars is that some videos have some sound issues and as a result can be a bit quiet.

fully recommend WSO LBO modelling course
As leveraged finance practitioner in BB bank can only fully recommend WSO LBO modelling course to all who needs practical experience of using leveraged finance and understanding model in detail - whether you'e at sells-de or buy-side. Course also comes at great value of money, specifically if you take is as a package with other courses. No brainer.

Great website but sometimes goes off topic
There r some good info about finance, less trolls, more legit info sharing. Moderators should do their job and scope out more curated content for legit finance users who r genuinely trying to build a career in finance or using it to scope out future oppys.

I just wanted to say thanks again
I just wanted to say thanks again. Your advice definitely improved my behavioral and case interviews and I progressed significantly from the feedback that you gave me. Ultimately my summer internship decision came down to two options: HR consulting at Mercer and a valuation role at Duff & Phelps. Both have fantastic cultures and seem to be great learning opportunities but I ended up choosing Duff & Phelps because I wanted to learn a little more valuation and how different financial factors in a company can impact its current and future health. That being said, the ultimate goal next year is still to get into strategy consulting after learning more about the valuation aspect of a business. Thanks again for your mentorship!
My mentor was really helpful
My mentor was really helpful, with regard to making me think of new ideas and incorporating them into my search. Would consider using him again when I have interviews lined up.

I found the typeface for finding a mentor clunky. It was difficult to know when I purchased mentor ship that I had booked one session so I ended up booking twice !

Cool Site
This is a great site with lots of knowledge and helpful members from the finance world.

Improvements:
-There can be some pretty bro-esque posts. The mods should work with the OPs to make their posts more appropriate.
-I made a post several years ago, and even though I rarely use the site, occasionally that post receives monkey poop. I don't want to receive an email about a post I made 4+ years ago because I don't care.
