It’s a fun and intelectual forum. I enjoy it !!

WSO has been the go-to forum and platform for finance professionals and the like. The threads and forums have been engaging, informative, and entertaining for the most part. WSO has also provided many important sources for interview preps, company database information, networking and interview opportunities. Looking to contribute further to the large WSO community that has grown exponentially throughout the years.

Great resource for newcomers to finance or those looking to break into industry; definitely gave me a lot of information regarding interview prep. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get their foot in the door of a big wall street firm, or even just those who want to learn more about the finance industry.

There is great education and conversation on the site. I think there are a few opportunities with regards to consulting in Bulge Banks, but all in all, I would never complain; because I think WSO serves many people who would not have access to this information any other way. Are the finance guys a little extra on the boards maybe, but that's what makes the whole site entertaining. Some of the training sites cost is really high for my taste, but you've got to invest in yourself.

Wall Street Oasis was an excellent resource for me as a young analyst at a top 4 bank here in the USA. I learned about bank culture, the hierarchy, what the different roles are in investment banking, private equity, and sales and trading, and much more. The experienced bankers that weighed in on posts offered immense value in my opinion, and the humerous articles offered entertainment during my lunch breaks. The company database offered good insight on different banks from the perspective of insiders that helped me decide which employers I wanted to apply at. The financial modeling course is second to none in my opinion. My bank hired Training The Street to come in and teach us, but I view Wall Street Oasis material as more comprehensive and easier to understand. The interview prep was also a great resource.

I wrote for WSO through an internship program and rhen briefly as a paid writer. The experience was excellent. Not only did I learn a lot from writing for them, but getting engaged in the community was really awesome. I also had a chance to speak with the owners of WSO a few times, and it was always a pleasure. Always felt welcomed and appreciated, even when my writing was controversial.

I've really come to enjoy the community you have built at WSO. I wish I had discovered you all sooner! I didn't come across the site until the depths of the pandemic, but since I have, I've upped my "networking" and picked up countless other tips shared by generous members of the community. I only hope I can someday be in a position to contribute something meaningful to the life or career of a more youthful WSO participant.

WSO has been an amazing resource throughout the years. The WSO forums have helped me tons both as a student and as a full time investment banking analyst.
