“Even as an intern, I could define my own experience and it carried into my work now as a consultant. I did meaningful work and was meeting with clients from Day 1. To get that level of exposure to executives, to be in the room during the decision-making process and see how they think, to even get to give input, is a unique learning experience.”
− Sam Roston, SATOV alumni −

“I thought SATOV was the best place I could have worked at in my first role after school. It’s hard to match the breadth of experience across industries and business problems, and the range of amazing people I’ve met along the way in all sorts of businesses and in all roles. Just be prepared to work hard before you sign. Call me if you have any doubts.”
