Testimonials from the Fund Community

  • "Participating in the Investment Fund taught me invaluable lessons about financial modeling, equity analysis, and pitch creation that I would never have obtained in the classroom. The fundamental techniques I learned about understanding the strengths and weaknesses of a business helped me stand out in the recruiting process for my two co-ops and developed my critical thinking abilities."

    Michael Redko, Spring 2022

    Gary Shetye, Alumni ‘23

  • I joined TAMID looking to get a better understanding of what I wanted to pursue for a career. From that perspective, the investment fund crushed my expectations. Through four years serving as an analyst, lead analyst, and director in the fund, I formed an incredible network of like-minded learners, developed skills my classes weren’t teaching me (but employers were demanding), and set myself up to pursue my dream job in Investment Banking.

    Jeffrey Wallace, Alumni ‘23

  • "TAMID's Investment Fund equipped me with the skills to effectively communicate market research and tailor it to the needs of investors. During my first co-op, I knew what to look for and where to find it, which enhanced both efficiency and the quality of deliverables for our clients. I can safely say the fund gives you a huge competitive edge in the real-world."
