Hear him talk about the difference between WSMM and other career programs like SEO, and how he ultimately was able to secure an offer from Morgan Stanley.

Our client Jared started working with WSMM during his sophomore spring.

His original approach of reading interview guides from upperclassmen wasn't clicking for him, so he decided to get help.

Hear him talk about how he was able to secure 15 different interviews (with over half of them that barely asked any questions from the popular guides), and why he ultimately chose Bain Capital over Citi.

Our client Cameron had dreams of working in NYC.

Unfortunately, UT Austin was only a target school for the Houston office but a non-target for NYC (only ~1 in 10 students from the school end up in the NYC office).

Hear how Cameron overcame these odds to receive offers from both Moelis and Rothschild in NYC, in addition to Citi in Houston.

Also hear about the difference between WSMM and the feeder clubs at school, and how they complement each other.

Oftentimes, you’ll find yourself in a situation where you’ll have to add a new internship to your resume, even though you just started (or are about to start) and you haven’t really done any real work yet.

This need arises mainly because investment banks are recruiting earlier and earlier, and oftentimes that creates more urgency to add your “incoming” experiences onto your resume as soon as possible.

So can you actually do this? And if so, how do you do it without getting into trouble?

Hear me coach one of our students through how to do just this. He just got a new internship and joined a new club on campus, so this helped him a bunch. Hopefully it’ll help you too!

When it comes to resume building, how do you know whether you need to go out and get another relevant internship or not?

Or sometimes, if it comes down to staying at your existing internship longer versus getting a new internship, which is the better move?

This is a question that students commonly have, but the answer is actually more straightforward than you think.

Hear me explain the simple criteria to use when making these tradeoffs, and then go and optimize your resume with the best experiences possible!

Our client Daniel first spoke to us early on during sophomore year, but wasn't ready to commit to our program.

Hear him talk about his comeback story.
