June 16, 2022 Episode 187: Industry VS. Product Groups
When you apply for a big investment bank, you’re not just applying for the bank itself. What matters just as much, if not more, is which group at the bank you get placed in.
There are industry groups, and then there are also product groups.
It can be confusing what the difference is, and how they split up the responsibilities or work together.
Watch me explain to my student the difference between the two types of groups, and how they both fit into the investment banking ecosystem.

June 15, 2022 Episode 186: How Jack Chose Investment Banking Over Consulting and Ended Up at an Elite Boutique
Our client Jack joined WSMM right before sophomore year, when he was still choosing between investment banking and consulting.
Prior to joining WSMM, he already had a pretty good resume with his school, GPA, and relevant experiences.
With that said, he knew that anything less than a bulge bracket or elite boutique bank would be a disappointment.
Hear how he ultimately decided on investment banking and landed an elite boutique offer.

June 13, 2022 Episode 185: How to Network Without Being Spammy
When you network with investment bankers, you have to send out a lot of emails because not everyone will respond.
This is especially true if you start late with your networking, because then you’re in a rush and have to cram even more networking emails in a short amount of time.
But the problem is - if you’re sending the same email to everyone in the office, how can you avoid coming across as spammy and getting blacklisted as a result?
Hear me coach my student on how to avoid being labeled a spammer. With some careful planning, you can send a lot of networking emails all at once and still be OK.

June 09, 2022 Episode 184: Common Issues for Non-Target Networking
Non-target school students typically find it more difficult to network because they don’t have as many alumni working in investment banking.
Because of this, they often wonder if it makes sense to network with professionals that work in other divisions at the investment bank, such as sales & trading or private wealth management.
Another issue is that the alumni that they do speak with often don’t have any influence to give them referrals.
Hear me coach one of our non-target students on what to do in these type of situations.

May 26, 2022 Episode 179: What to Do if a Banker Reschedules Last Minute
Oftentimes when you schedule a networking call with a banker, they will have to reschedule at the last minute.
This is very normal because “firedrills” come up at work all the time, and the banker is always going to prioritize their clients over your networking call.
When this happens, what is the best way to respond to make sure that you can still chat with the banker at a later time?
Hear me coach a student through how to respond in this type of situation.

May 25, 2022 Episode 178: ELEVATE Program Session 6 Going Through Ximena's "Guaranteed Questions" Answers
In this session, we start working on Ximena's behavioral answers by giving her feedback on what we call "the guaranteed questions".
These questions include tell me about yourself, or walk me through your resume, why investment banking, and why our bank.
These are usually the first and most important questions that get asked in any interview, so it's crucial to knock these questions out of the park if you hope to get an offer.
