Call an Insider
15-min career calls between students and professionals.
When I was a student, I had no one to ask. A dozen professionals gave me fifteen minutes each, and that's how I got into investment banking. Years later, I built what I wish had existed. Call an Insider: students and recent graduates book a free 15-minute call with someone who does the job they want. Real people, real firms, in a few clicks. Insiders are volunteers. No fees, no upsell. Professionals: be the call you wish you'd had at 22.
Hi Product Hunt, Ilyas here, maker of Call an Insider.
When I was 22, I wanted to get into investment banking and I didn't know a single person who did the job. What saved me was a dozen professionals who each gave me fifteen minutes on the phone: what the job really was, what the culture was like, what they'd actually ask me in interviews.
I got in. And every recruiting season since, I've watched the same pattern: the students who get offers are rarely the smartest. They're the ones who talked to someone inside.
So I built the thing I wish had existed. Call an Insider: in a few clicks, a student or recent graduate books a free 15-minute call with a professional who does the job they want. Insiders are volunteers at top firms. No fees, no upsell, just people helping people.
Built in one week, alone, as part of a challenge: one product every two weeks. What's there today: insider profiles, slot booking, calendar confirmation. What's missing: more insiders in more industries.
It's Hypership Day. Tell me the one thing you'd add or change, I'll ship it today and post each update right here.
If you're a professional: be the call you wish you'd had at 22. Becoming an insider takes two minutes.
Two questions: which industries do you want insiders in first? And what would make you actually book a call?
I'll be here all day.
