Working with Devan was one of the best decisions I made during my MBA application journey. His insights, strategic guidance, and honest feedback played a huge role in helping me craft a compelling story - and ultimately get accepted to Wharton. I couldn’t have done it without him!

Devan’s guidance and advice was instrumental in my MBA application journey. He was able to provide sound and realistic advice tailored to my background as an enlisted service member while giving me the confidence to aim for more prestigious programs than I thought myself qualified for. Without Devan, and the Enlisted Exfil community he founded, I would not be attending Wharton this summer in their full time class of ‘27.

Frances is a great coach. Patient, thoughtful, wise. So many great tools in her toolbox that have really helped me to approach situations differently.

Devan has been an integral part of my MBA application process has I navigate my post-military career. I now have several interviews with top MBA programs thanks to Devan’s dedication and commitment. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with him!

Navigating the MBA admissions process as an enlisted military member was a daunting challenge. Knowing the hidden aspects of what each school is looking for what and how to better prepare all aspects of my package and how to best tell my story is where Devan shined in the process for me. For me, His viewpoints, drive and tough but sincere mentorship is a God Send. Thank you Devan for all you have done and I can not ask for a better coach to be in my corner.

Sandeep Sir has been very instrumental in my selection process during campus placement at IIMA. He not only arranged for very curated Jobs with great companies such as Hero Motors but also coached and mentored students throughout the engagements . He has right methods and best practices that worked for my entire batch quite well and helped us fetching best of JDs and packages in campus. My landing in Budweiser through campus selection process was one of the tipping points in my career progression and Sandeep Sir’s guidance and contributions were paramount in those selection processes.

Devan is the reason that I decided to shoot for MBA programs. Before him I didn't think it was realistic. Would recommend anyone to work with him. Great dude who knows a great deal about the higher education path.

My experience with Mr. Sandeep S. was truly transformative. At a time when I was experiencing professional fatigue, partly due to long-standing familial responsibilities, Sandeep’s mentorship - not through advice or direction, but by triggering an inward journey - helped me realize that my true passion lay in higher academics. With newfound clarity, I cleared the entrance exam, leading to my enrollment in a Ph.D. program. Today, I am in the advanced stages of my doctoral journey. His mentorship also positively shaped my career trajectory, enabling me to diversify into business operations before returning to HR at a higher level. I remain deeply grateful to Sandeep for helping me reconnect with my path and purpose.

I couldn't recommend him enough to anyone navigating career transitions or seeking clarity/figuring things out. A seasoned professional, he seamlessly blends strategic advice with targeted and granular feedback on CVs, cover letters & even thoughtful questions to guide reflections throughout and beyond the MBA. His infectious energy and generosity is inspiring to say the least - I will encourage anyone to seize this opportunity to connect with him.

Deekron knows what he's doing. His coaching isn't about hype — it's about real results. He helped me develop the resilience and mindset I needed to move forward, even when things were tough. No shortcuts, no sugarcoating — just practical strategies that actually work. If you want someone who will challenge you and guide you in the right direction, I fully recommend him.
