1. Candidate Branding Makeover™
How you position yourself to the bankers and make the first impression is the most important step.

We’ll build you a signature Irresistible Resume™ which seductively ticks-off everything a banker is seeking in a trophy candidate, and more importantly makes the banker look like a hero for finding you!
There’s a difference between knowing what you need to do… and knowing exactly HOW to do it. A signature Irresistible Resume™ combined with the proper under-the-radar recruiting channels will help you get your foot in the door with your first relevant finance internship within just 1-2 weeks – even if you come in with zero prior finance experience. Our method for this has worked 100% of the times to date.
This is a critical first step because without the right first impression, your networking efforts will not convert into referrals very often, if at all. Also, your interview answers will lack substance because you don’t have any relevant experience to talk about.
2. Networking Funnel Optimization™
Most top banks receive upwards of 100+ applications for every hire, making networking mandatory if you're serious about getting hired.
Contrary to popular belief, networking is NOT just a numbers game. To network efficiently, you must treat it like a funnel, identify the leaks, and optimize each conversion point.

To effortlessly secure interview referrals from investment bankers, you must accomplish the following steps:
3. Professionally Crafted Behaviorals™
For your behavioral interviews, the point is not to be RIGHT,
but to be BETTER than your competition.

In terms of what is a “better” answer, your interviewer’s opinion is the only one that matters. Now, imagine if your interviewer told you exactly what they wanted to hear or better yet, crafted your answers with you.
We help you rig the game by “reading the interviewer’s mind” – you’ll know the exact questions to expect ahead of time, never falling victim to curveball questions again.
Next, take the frameworks we’ve synthesized from the most successful answers out of a huge sample size of hundreds of students, and apply it to your unique set of experiences. Compare your answers against the answers of our most successful students to calibrate how you really stack up.
Lastly, an experienced banker does a detailed edit of every answer, rewriting it line by line, helping you turn your stories into exactly what bankers want to hear.
4. Accelerated Technical Mastery™
Over the last 10+ years, the investment banking recruiting process has started earlier and earlier each year. Students now have to be ready to interview more than 1.5 years before the actual internship itself.
To make matters worse, during this time there has been a proliferation of recruiting resources. As a result, the average candidate today is much more prepared, making the recruiting process even more competitive.
To adapt to this trend, interviewers are no longer asking simple “definitional questions” where the answers can be memorized. Instead, they’re asking “application questions” that require candidates to apply an in-depth understanding of technical concepts to real-world situations. The days of memorizing answers are over.

As your competition evolves, you need a competitive advantage to stay ahead. Simply doing the same things that everyone else is doing is a low-probability way of elevating yourself into the top 5% of the candidate pool.
Your secret weapon? Learn the exact technical concepts you need directly from an investment banker. You’ll be able to confidently answer even the toughest technical questions without memorizing a single interview guide. Plus you’ll outperform every other candidate who gives memorized, cookie-cutter answers because they do not have access to this type of help and have to self-study.
We call this Accelerated Technical Mastery™ because you’ll learn everything in as little as 20-30 hours. No more memorizing hundreds of pages from interview guides, or spending 100+ hours on confusing financial modeling courses even though you’ll NEVER get asked to build a model during your interviews (yep, it’s true).
5. Unlimited On-Demand Feedback™
Learning from an expert is always going to be better than learning through self-study.
It’s the same reason why people pay six-figures to go to college, when they can just self-study reading a book or going online. When you DIY, you miss things that are in your blindspot. Instead, have a banker who can coach you through any situation, 24/7, on demand. Also watch your competition’s mock interviews to see how your answers truly stack up.
Here’s another way to think about it: if there were two gifted basketball players trying to make it into the NBA, but one had a great coach and the other just practiced on his own – who’s more likely to make it to the pros? So why should you try to get into investment banking, the pinnacle of the finance profession, on your own?

When you try to DIY, you miss things that are in your blindspot. It’s like a basketball player trying to fix the form on a broken jump shot when he doesn’t realize why he’s missing in the first place. He’s not going to just have an epiphany all the sudden and become Steph Curry.
Unfortunately, despite the proliferation of recruiting resources, almost all of them are DIY. The popular interview guides provide one-size-fits-all answers with no personalization, suffocating your unique story. The financial modeling courses are long and confusing, and also provide very little support when you’re stuck.
Rather than piecing together everything you need from different sources who all give you conflicting advice, imagine having one go-to banker who can coach you through any situation you encounter, 24/7, on demand, from now until you get the job. What’d that do for you?
6. Elite Intelligence Network™
Investment banking recruiting is usually a long and grueling process. Your competition is cutthroat and not about to help you out. And going through it alone can be stressful and lonely
