We connect employers with rigorously evaluated talent and offer professionals access to open roles & professional development—without charging any fees for referrals to positions.

Penny He CFA Manager Hedge Funds Citco
I was able to acquire a position as an associate in a private equity team immediately
I am a CFA charter holder and having worked in the asset administration industry for over a decade. I was looking for a different direction from hedge funds. FSE equipped me with what I was missing. Without their support and specialized skill set, I don’t believe I would be able to secure a position on the private equity side as fast as I did.

Crystal Qin Supervisor Fund Valuations SGGG FSI.
Working with FSE gave me a first-hand experience of technicalities but also helped me think clearly about what I wanted to do in life.
After I graduated, I applied to many positions in the financial market but I was ineffective. I got in touch with FSE and they helped me grow professionally. They are very skilled and know a great deal about capital markets, up to date and well integrated in the industry.
