The Unique Edge of OSG

Non-Personalized Curriculum

Many organizations assign mentors to large student cohorts and rely heavily on pre-recorded lectures or generic materials. This mass-market approach fails to address individual learning styles, paces, and career goals. As a result, students often feel disengaged and struggle to retain meaningful insights from the program.

Personalized Planning and One-on-One Mentorship

At OSG, every student receives individualized support from a dedicated team of 15–20 mentors, including a lead mentor, behavioral and technical mentors, and other specialists. We begin by understanding each student’s aspirations, and then we design a customized, long-term career roadmap. While our curriculum maintains high standards across the board, our delivery is tailored, adapting to each student’s learning style, pace, and background. This personalized approach has enabled us to transform students with no prior experience into top-tier candidates who receive offers in as little as three months after onboarding.

Non-compliant Practices

Some providers attempt to capitalize on students’ anxiety by offering shortcuts such as paid internships or guaranteed referrals. These offers may appear tempting, but they come with serious risks. Paid internships typically do not pass background checks, as no credible company sells internship placements. Similarly, guaranteed referrals often breach SEC compliance and can result in flagged or blacklisted applications—ultimately doing more harm than good.

Unparalleled Industry Placement

We believe that success in finance and consulting is built through skill, discipline, and confidence, not shortcuts. That’s why OSG provides authentic, step-by-step career coaching that empowers students to earn internships and referrals through proven methods: networking, cold emailing, and rigorous interview preparation. Our comprehensive services equip students with the tools, experience, and mindset needed to succeed in a competitive job market.

Weak Mentor Network

Many firms operate with a network of mentors who are either retired or lack substantial, full-time experience at leading firms in finance and consulting. In fast-paced, evolving industries, guidance from actively engaged professionals is essential. Without recent and relevant industry exposure, mentors may fall behind on current practices, tools, and expectations. Students benefit most from mentors who have firsthand, up-to-date insights and the practical experience necessary to offer credible, real-world advice.

Elite, Industry-Active Mentor Network

OSG’s mentor network includes over 500 professionals, each with 2–3+ years of full-time experience, and are currently working in front-office roles at top-tier consulting and financial firms. This active engagement in the industry ensures our students gain access to real-time insights on recruitment cycles, office-specific expectations, and practical strategies for success. It’s the kind of insider knowledge that can’t be found in online guides—and it’s what sets OSG apart.
