Applications for college clubs? EW! 🤮
Here at SOCS you get real experience without unnessary gatekeeping

SOCS started with a simple idea: it shouldn’t be this hard to find a good case partner.What began as a few students helping each other prep for consulting, IB, and PE interviews grew into something bigger—a community of 250+ students showing up weekly to improve together and do real consulting work for Stanford startups.
No club drama. No exclusivity. Just serious reps and real projects.
We run live projects with Stanford startups and student orgs—open to any SOCS member.There are no applications. You join, you contribute, and you gain real experience.We believe consulting shouldn't be gated. That's why we're building something different.
Every Sunday, SOCS members meet on campus to grind through interview reps.From casing to LBOs to brainteasers, you’ll find partners who take prep seriously—and help you get better, fast.It’s open to everyone. Bring a friend or make one here.
Prefer Zoom? Want a partner mid-week? SOCS connects members for 1:1 mock interviews or async drills through our partner system.Whether you're prepping for consulting, quant, or PE, there's someone in the network for you.Find your pace. Find your partner.
Simply fill out one of our two interest forms to start! We have one form for founders who want to receive help, and another for consultants looking for experience. You can find the links on our homepage.
The next step is to sign a 2-year non-disclosure agreement (NDA) to protect the intellectual property of our founders. Authenticity and creating a safe space for learning are our top priorities.
We offer students guided exposure to the bread and butter of business: stakeholder interviews. This is a vital skill whether you're interested in consulting, private equity, venture capital, investment banking, or even software engineering.
At SOCS, we provide a guided opportunity for our consultants to conduct their very own stakeholder interviews with sizable impact to our SOCS Clients and organizational partners. This is a vital source of information for any business.
While we have a focus on finance and consulting careers, our platform is for any student or Stanford community member interested in gaining pre-professional experience and for any student founder who needs help with their venture.
Unlike most clubs, SOCS has no applications, no interviews, and no exclusivity. We’re open to everyone—whether you're preparing for interviews or looking to build something real. It’s a culture of showing up, not selecting out.
No experience? No problem. SOCS projects are designed to help you learn by doing. You’ll collaborate with peers, get guidance from experienced leads, and improve fast. Everyone starts somewhere—just start here.
