I was like a train stuck on the tracks—working hard but not meeting my career goals. I hired Kash a week before compensation review day, and he immediately helped me get in the game. Although we agreed on a target and I was initially told I’d see positive growth towards it, I didn’t. Thanks to Kash, I was prepared, and my manager and his manager knew I expected more.
​
From there, we tackled the next steps together. Kash guided me through interviewing in a tough job market while helping me maintain high performance in my current role. I didn’t move, but that’s because the calculus clearly favored staying.
Thanks to Kash’s guidance, my year-end results this year was excellent. Now when I do make my next career move, it will be in the right direction.
Strongly recommend working with Kash!

As an MBB consultant aiming to break into a quant long/short fund, I initially felt completely out of my depth despite some background in data analytics. Kash stepped in and tailored a plan that was incredibly effective, leveraging my strengths in market research and company diligence alongside the quant analysis skills I needed to develop. I spent countless hours watching YouTube tutorials, combing through forums, and diving into books, but it was our four sessions together that really cemented my understanding and confidence.
​
Kash’s guidance went beyond just technical skills; he helped me understand how to integrate these quant techniques with my existing skill set, which was instrumental when I faced a challenging 48-hour case in my interview process. Without Kash’s structured approach and encouragement, I would have struggled to make it through. Thanks to his support, I’ve now advanced to the final rounds, and Kash and I are continuing to prepare together.
I can’t recommend him highly enough to anyone looking to break into this challenging field.

Kash has been an invaluable guide in the academic university landscape. He equipped me with essential skills to navigate the complex institutional structures and, at times, the challenging environment.
Through his mentorship, I learned effective communication strategies with research supervisors, which helped me address vague research questions directly and gain clear answers. Kash's experiences also taught me to maintain empathy and understanding, recognizing that academic life can be demanding for professors too.
I know for someone to reach this level of academic maturity it would've involved significant suffering, so learn from him and save yourself the time and trouble. By standing on the shoulders of a seasoned scholar like Kash, you can focus more on solving research problems rather than grappling with communication issues. He'll be your field guide through the world of academia.
Melbourne, Australia, PhD Candidate
I had a fantastic experience working with Kash from Quant Coaching.
He helped me refine both my CV and LinkedIn profile, and as a result, I received significantly more responses and attention from recruiters. Unlike typical services that offer just the basics, Kash is genuinely committed to your success.
He regularly checked in, always available to answer my questions, and we often had insightful and interesting conversations that helped me see my career path more clearly. His deep knowledge, not only in the quant space but also in data science in general, was invaluable.
I highly recommend Kash for anyone looking to take their career to the next level.

London, Data Scientist
I was dealing with a particularly toxic manager at work and was at a breaking point. My performance was deteriorating, and I was scared with all the layoffs happening I would be next.
Luckily I found Kash on Google and started to have weekly sessions with him. Within two weeks my performance turned around and I was able to manage my manager and establish boundaries surviving until comp. Highly recommend him to anyone struggling in NYC finance.

I got lowballed on my offer from academia to finance compared to my peers, and ended up roughing it out for 2 years until I switched firms. The academic in me kept thinking as long as I did good work I’d be rewarded. Fast forward 4 years later – same firm, same role, same comp.
I felt lost and after a quick Google search found Kash. I learned how to play the game and started to work on more satisfying projects. I’m still at the same shop because of the economy, but with his help, I’m much more satisfied at work and at home, feeling ready for when things turn around. Highly recommend him to academics thinking of transitioning into finance.

I was in Quant Research on the buy side for 5 years after I graduated with my PhD bouncing around from firm-to-firm, looking for a good team. I found during that time as folks get more senior, they just do what their managers did, propagating bad culture from generation to generation.
Kash helped me make break this cycle. I switched firms and am now managing a team using his guidance. I’m a much better person for it.

I’ve been in the industry for over 6 years, with a PhD. I have not found the right team/pod and have struggled with getting comp closer to my target value.
I reached out to Kash, and he is helping to set me straight. Together we used comp discussions with my manager to ensure I have a good mix of projects to maintain my interests and make me a more attractive candidate. We’re also developing interviewing strategies which I am hopeful will get me to the team structure that is ideal for me.
