Built for finance interviews

We built AceTheRound to help finance students practice real interview questions out loud and improve how they communicate under pressure.

Finance interviews are some of the most demanding conversations you will face early in your career. They are fast, structured, and high stakes. Knowing the material is expected. What often makes the difference is how clearly, confidently, and concisely you explain it.

AceTheRound exists to help you perform at your best in those moments.

Our approach

We believe strong interview performance is something you can train.

Instead of relying on theory, one-off mock interviews, or generic advice, we focus on realistic practice and clear, objective feedback. You practice answering real questions out loud, review how you come across, and improve through repetition.

Our goal is simple. When you walk into an interview, nothing feels new. You have already practiced the pressure.

Meet the founders

Lu

Luan

Co-Founder

Luan has experience across top tier bulge bracket and elite boutique investment banks, with exposure to private equity transactions and high-pressure decision making.

Alongside his work in finance, he has regularly coached students preparing for interviews and seen many of them go on to secure offers.

That experience highlighted a clear problem. Strong candidates often struggle not because they lack knowledge, but because they find it difficult to communicate clearly under pressure.

AceTheRound was built to make high quality interview preparation more accessible and less dependent on personal networks.
