My reviewer was extremely helpful in helping me improve my resume and I was able to accomplish one of my goals, which was gaining acceptance to a selective private equity diversity program. His background in Consulting was particularly valuable, as he was able to provide useful feedback in framing my own Consulting experience. He was so helpful that I am hoping to work with him again soon on a mock interview.
She gave me tons of great advice
Cindy was very supportive and encouraging. She gave me tons of great advice and helped me with Why IB and 7 stories. This mock was great and she gave me specific feedback on each answer. She is the best mentor I have worked with in this academy!

Pricey, but worth it to have a resume you can continue to build on.
Pricey, but overall great service and in my opinion would have done it again. The person that worked with me to write my resume was top notch and had an impressive background from IB to private equity was able to leverage that experience to write a solid resume for me. We hopped on two/three calls. The first call we just walked through every job function I had and I described to him what my day to day ways and a few key projects I was involved in from internship/jobs/ and activities was able to use all the key jargon and formating that IB firms are looking for. I come from a commercial / credit banking background so I have always had a hard time in putting my experience in terms of IB related roles.
I will say tho I would write down every thing that you have done small or large in experiences in order to have a larger list to pull from and although your resume mentor you are paired with to decided, which would likely be better to throw on the ole resume.
For background, I have written 100 different versions of my resume and have always thought I had a solid written resume, but he definitely was able to make my resume stand part.
You may have to wait for replies, but have to understand these folks are still working 70+ hours a week and this is side hustle for them, so definitely don't expect a two turnaround time.

very straight forward and easy to follow!
The course is very straight forward and easy to follow! It will teach you how to construct your first LBO model and a process to be used when practicing different models. The instructor walks very thoroughly through each of the sections speaking to the implementation and background of an LBO model.

There are questions at the end of each section that could be improved upon, but it's a modeling course not exam prep so it is understanable.

Overall, I would recommend this course to someone interested in learning LBOs.
