What our members are saying 🧡
Rita Wang
“I met Shawn in my last school term when I was frustrated to find a full-time job upon graduation. Shawn has prepared me well from resume writing, networking tips to interview practice. He always corrected me on small mistakes I’d ignore and gave me constructive feedback on my interview answers. One of my interviewers at Citibank said I provided the best answer that she has ever heard. I would never imagine myself to land a front office Analyst role with Citibank in 2 months during the global pandemic.”
Austin Wu
“From resume editing to interview preparation, my coach has been extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I couldn't have imagined that I'd land an Analyst role at BMO in just two months. Highly recommend 36paths to anyone struggling with their career, particularly entry-level finance job seekers."
Leo Zhao
"My experience with 36paths has been nothing short of exceptional since day one. Not only did I gain a tremendous amount of clarity, confidence and job search knowledge, but also I received a Financial Analyst offer with Uken Games within 6 weeks. Without my coach, it would have been 6+ months!"
Shirish Mannur
“As an international MBA student graduating during a pandemic, 36paths helped streamline my job search process and focus on the Finance roles where I’d be competitive. Shawn is an excellent mentor with rich industry experience and provided invaluable inputs on applications, networking and interview preparation which helped me land a full-time Associate role within the Corporate Client Group at RBC.”
Radhika Bhaskar
"There are a myriad of things that make Shawn’s program not just unique but also ever so helpful! First and foremost, he understands the true nature of the struggle new grads face in creating resumes and doing their best in interviews! His novel approach to both has helped me elevate both to levels hitherto unachieved! More importantly though, his prompt ever readiness to help is what helped me successfully get not one but three positions! I shall forever be indebted to his incredible program!"

“As a recent graduate, I was frustrated and lost after receiving countless rejections. But my coach at 36paths quickly and accurately identified the mistakes I was making. During the process, I improved my job hunting skills but more importantly landed a Pension Analyst offer from Morneau Shepell."
