How is this free for students? What's the catch?

There is no catch! For real. By partnering with leading companies within the industries we currently serve (consulting and finance), we're able to offer ModernGuild membership and access to our learning opportunities at no cost whatsoever to the student. Believe it or not, it's very expensive (and time-intensive) for a company to recruit on college campuses, and as a result, any large company will only realistically target 10-20 schools. By reducing the average cost-per-hire and expanding reach, we're able to give top employers access to students at hundreds of colleges. At no point, and under no circumstance, is there a charge to the student. We pride ourselves on remaining accessible to students of all backgrounds, so we will never compromise on this point.

Am I obligated to accept a job offer?

Am I obligated to accept a job offer?

Nope, you are not obligated to accept an internship or job offer. However, given the demand for any given cycle, we do hope that you will only opt-in for roles if you have a sincere interest in working with the sponsoring company.

Why are there only programs in consulting and finance?

Why are there only programs in consulting and finance?

In the past, ModernGuild has offered a wider array of industry programs. However, we have chosen to double-down on these two industries for now to ensure we're delivering the best possible experience for students and surpassing the expectations of our current company partners. In the future, we certainly hope to introduce more tracks.

What is a TPI score?

What is a TPI score?

TPI is ModernGuild's proprietary performance metric that allows us to standardize each student's interview readiness within their industry of choice. "T" measures your technical aptitude (are you able to complete basic technical exercises that will be expected of you during the interview process?), "P" measures your professionalism (do your elevator pitch, resume, and interview approach reflect a coherent narrative that positions you for success within your chosen industry?), and "I" measures your broad industry awareness (do you have a solid grasp of the industry and your possible place within it?). These scores are derived in crude form during your process completion process and then modified and refined once you've completed one of our training programs.
