Where I would I be without WSO?
I went to a non-target school, and WSO was where I learned 90% of what I needed to know to break into and progress in my career - thank you Patrick and the whole WSO community!

Patrick is great and the website is informative for people pursuing banking and trading careers.

Though I'm a couple years removed from my last big finance job, I appreciate the insights from the top posts each week. A nice mix of what's happening, general angst over people's careers, and some humorous anecdotes.

From my experience, WSO is a great forum with quality posts and serious participants from within the industry. I gained a lot of inside knowledge from asking and reading others' questions. Many of the information there is invaluable and unavailable anywhere else, even paid sources. Definitely worth one's time and well-moderated.

I used WS Oasis extensively from 2008-2010. It, lieterally, was responsible for getting me a job at a bulge bracket firm in trading. The interview advice was extremely helpful, to the point where I was asked several exact brain teasers I saw on the forums.

A hedge fund owner looking to do community service helped me reconstruct my resume, and provided me with conscientious and actionable career advice, at a fee structure corresponding to 3% of what his time is normally worth, i.e. essentially as a volunteer; I suspect he was grateful for some recent good fortune and wanted to pay it forward, which he did. Very useful for my trajectory and much appreciated.

Ha, it's true. Most of the reviewers doing this work are doing this because they love paying it forward, not because it comes close to their actual worth. Thanks for the review, Patrick
As an executive recruiter, Wall Street Oasis provides valuable insights relevant to both clients and candidates. It would be helpful if I were pemitted to post job openings of interest to your members. Any guidance on how to do this would be appreciated. --George +1 917 545-9850
