What we teach

  • Running multiple processes at once: a calendar, a prep sheet per firm, and honest updates to each.
  • Final-round and superday prep: back-to-back interviews, energy, and consistency across interviewers.
  • Declining without burning a relationship: frame it as fit, not preference.
  • Pre-interview research on the firm and the interviewer, and how to use it without sounding like you looked them up.
  • Level 5 check: 350+ sent, 2 graded mocks passed, and 1+ real first round where available.

Live reps

A second full mock with a harder interviewer (a stranger), in a different format.

Your 60-minute 1:1 this week

Prep for whatever is real this week: a first round, a follow-up, or a decline. If nothing is live, a mini-mock on the weakest scorecard area.

  • What did the stranger's mock show you that ours didn't?
