Excellent reference and highly entertaining
WSO is a great forum to familiarize yourself with the competitive landscape in PE and investment banking. The anonymity allows for a "no holds barred" exchange of insider perspectives that is both helpful and extremely entertaining.

Excellent site
Excellent site. It was extremely informative in the beginning of my career when I was trying to get my feet wet and learn more about finance while at the desk. At times I learned more through the site than I did on the job. I appreciate all the community has to offer and the different perspectives that everyone has.

Feel like my resume needed far more work in terms of rewriting. Structure and format wise it was fine but I anticipated more than just moving words and sentence around. I was hope to get help with showing commercial impact and did not really get that.

Choosing to have my resume reviewed by WSO was a great decision
Choosing to have my resume reviewed by WSO was a great decision. I'm extremely happy with the results. Rich did a great job tailoring my resume to accentuate my strengths in a couple of key areas.

The 15min phone call was also very useful and I now know what attributes to leverage in my pursuit of getting into a corporate development role.

Course is good for those who has no or has prior knowledge

It's been quite a while since I took that course and I didn't quite finished it to the end simply because some of my career objective has changed a bit. The course was very good even for those who already studied similar materials at school. I learnt from uni and book the theory the calculations the definitions all that sort of thing, but the course takes a very practical approach and refines very important concepts. They are to the point, clear and what you could really use at work or if one wants to get prepped for some top case comp.

Love the discussions
Love the discussions. The information given by some of the more advanced users..The petty dick swinging can get annoying very fast, but that's the life, right?

I took a first 30-min session with my mentor and it went very well. He demonstrated clear guidance, provided straightforward advice, and tailored the meeting to my needs. I booked other session to focus on mock interviews and I have no concerns about the relevance of my next sessions.
