Why did we write this book?

At Zebralearn, we started with building education content in and around Finance. While interacting with a lot of young we saw that the young professionals didn’t have this specific skill set.
More than that,

There is a significant lack of awareness around the importance of  financial analysis

We have seen how the finance industry works, and we have seen how interviews are conducted, and what not. That’s when we decided to pour our hearts out in this book

Made with Love ❤️& 4 Yrs of Proprietary Research
