Meet Ben Chon
“I’ve been on both sides of recruiting - the one sending out resumes and the one reviewing them.”
Ben is a former J.P. Morgan investment banker and recruiting captain. He started rareliquid to explain how recruiting decisions get made from the inside, and has since mentored 200+ students into investment banking offers from all kinds of backgrounds, including non-targets, laterals, and late-starters.
