“WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE! It was the first for me in professional capacity and literally loved the experience. The most dominating part of the whole program was the reality of things that is not so much part of a university curriculum.

I also see Kapil as a mentor and guru who has lot to offer. The structure of the program was very well curated and delivered with perfection. Kapil kept things simple and yet very effective and result-oriented.”

“I definitely rank my time with Titans of Wall Street as one of the best professional experiences thus far. As a student with a background in engineering and no finance, Kapil was able to skillfully help me bridge that gap and allow me to gain both knowledge and confidence in my problem solving skills as a trader.

Having access to a hedge fund manager for over an hour each week is definitely better than watching YouTube tutorials or reading online. Kapil goes above and beyond his role as a mentor even after the program ends as he truly wishes for each of his mentees to succeed and create change in the real world.

As soon as this program was over, I definitely did notice an increase in the number of applications I sent progress to the next stage. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone who is willing to put in the time and effort to succeed as Kapil will provide you with the tools to do so. The mini-projects I completed each week as I sought to emulate his results definitely took my programming skills up a notch and allowed me to further develop myself after the program. It is definitely worth the investment.”

“The Titans of Wall Street training was a great course that really got me into the mindsight of how hedge fund traders think. A lot of courses are able to teach you technical skills when it comes to trading but this course really gives you perspective into how traders implement their strategies and the process they go through to ultimately find a winning strategy. Kapil is able to condense this knowledge during the sessions and I am grateful I was able to learn from an industry veteran.”

“Titans of Wall Street program is truly a unique six-week experience. Surrounded by peers that shared the same passion as me in quantitative finance, I felt fabulous to hone quant skills that used real-world data and professional experiences. The program covers from building equity and options strategies to forming a portfolio of strategies. Finally, Mr. Rastogi will end up the program with insights of excelling quant interviews and invite an insider to help us build more comprehension of the industry. Mr. Rastogi, more than an instructor, is truly a mentor who helps and encourages me to be successful in the quantitative finance.”

Kapil provided an intuitive and engaging lesson each week, in which he shared his own experiences as well as the underlying thought process behind each lesson. Each lesson was followed up with a project in which Kapil discussed the results, as well as incorporating his depth of market knowledge to each project which was one of the most valuable aspects of the programs.

Kapil also provided networking opportunities and interview tactics regarding employment opportunities, based on his own experiences and what is currently expected in the industry.

“Being part of the Titans Of Wall Street under Kapil’s assistance was such an amazing experience. I feel grateful for having the opportunity of being mentored by someone with such an impressive record within the financial industry.

“Traditional classroom education or just reading from a book doesn’t make the cut anymore in the quantitative finance space. Many strategies that can be found in a book are hardly applied in real world situations. But Mr. Kapil, from his years of experience as a hedge fund manager, teaches quantitative analysis and trading strategies that he himself has used, in a way that is simple and is clearly understood.

There is a wealth of knowledge that is shared, and it gave me an inside look into how analysis in done in the real world giving me great deal of confidence. To be able to play with real hedge fund data is also a big plus. Most importantly, coding up all the exercises helps build a rich portfolio that is valuable to have on your resume and can really help get your foot in the door – I believe having hands-on experience definitely boosts the chances of your resume getting noticed.

The panelists who came to one of the sessions also shared a lot of information regarding job search, networking, and other hot skills on demand in this field. Overall, I found this program extremely useful and I highly recommend it.”

Given Kapil’s Experience in the industry he really helps students understand the nitty-grities of the market. Each of the projects given during the course target specific things and these are tactics used by Kapil himself.

The feedback given after each project helped me improve and better articulate my work, this has helped me a lot in interviews. Kapil has shared a lot of knowledge regarding job hunting and how we can maximize our chances of landing interviews. Also, along the way if he has opportunities he has recommended me to them if they matched my background and interest. I am thankful to Kapil for his guidance and mentorship during and after the program.”

“Kapil’s program Titans of Wall Street has been one of the best experiences of my professional life. I was fortunate enough to meet Kapil during my Wall Street Internship, and he became a guiding figure for me to navigate that summer.

When he reached out and mentioned a spot had opened up for Titans of Wall Street, I jumped at the opportunity to learn more from him. Even with a Honors degree in Finance, the program gave me tremendous knowledge on how the Hedge Fund industry works and how to set yourself apart from the competition in terms of generating Alpha. This wasn’t just a set of video lessons like a normal program.

Kapil gave us rigorous homework and was always there anytime I had a question on a concept or homework problem. At the end of the program, I felt extremely confident in my ability to recruit for a hedge fund and pass the interview in order to get these selected spots. If you have any interest in breaking into the world of Hedge Funds, I highly recommend the Titans of Wall Street’s program!”

“It’s a valuable experience to study in the Titans of Wall Street Program. It provides tons of hands-on quantitative projects that are based on real problems in the quantitative area. Through the program, I completed projects such as analyzing performance persistence in hedge funds, backtesting trading strategies to beat the S&P 500, evaluating the impact of the S&P 500 moving averages, creating an options strategy, etc. After I finish every project, Mr. Rastogi will give me feedback based on his own trading experience that can help me have a better understanding of the project, so I will be prepared to talk about those projects in future interviews.
