Break Into Wall Street – BIWS Premium (Excel & VBA + Financial Modeling Mastery + PowerPoint Pro)

Breaking Into Wall Street Premium is our popular course bundle that gives you the “standout factor” you need to succeed in investment banking, private equity, and hedge fund interviews, and makes Excel, financial modeling, and PowerPoint feel like second nature…

• Learn by watching video-based training to master the Excel, accounting, valuation, financial modeling, and PowerPoint skills that are not taught at the undergraduate or graduate levels… but which you’d better know if you want to beat out the competition for the best jobs in investment banking, private equity, and hedge funds.
• Understand how financial modeling and valuation are done in the real world… not how academics think they should be done. Interviewers will LOVE it when you can recount the details of real companies you’ve analyzed and valued, such as Walmart, Atlassian, EasyJet, Vivendi, Jazz Pharmaceuticals, SunPower, Netflix, and more.
• Dominate your interviews and beat the competition. You’ll not only get up to speed with practical financial modeling… but you’ll also get to test your knowledge with practice Excel exercises, quiz questions, and written case study prompts. More than 48,569+ customers from 114+ countries have already used this knowledge to ace their banking interviews and outperform on the job. You can be next.
• Master Excel and VBA. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced user, you’ll be a bona fide pro by the end of this course – and you’ll save hours of spreadsheet drudgery. You’ll even learn how to automate repetitive tasks with VBA code and macros – which translates into better reviews and bigger bonuses… and more lucrative exit opportunities, of course.
• Learn Accounting, Valuation/DCF Analysis, and Merger and LBO Models. These are the fundamental skills you’ll need in investment banking, private equity, and hedge funds – and you’ll be ahead of the game by mastering them before you start working. To put it another way… in this market, NOT having these skills is practically like wearing a big red sign saying “DON’T HIRE ME” to an interview.
• Become a PowerPoint Speed Demon. You’ll learn everything from the key shortcuts and alignment tricks that will make your life easier to the structure of pitch books and other presentations used in finance roles. You’ll get practice exercises where you have to fix slides and company profiles, and you’ll learn how to insert and use Excel charts, diagrams, and more.
• Track Your Progress. You can check off each lesson as you move through the material, and you can use the study guides included in the course to skip to the exact lessons you need to review your work – or prepare for an interview on short notice.
