The Brief

What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.

Build a financial model to evaluate the feasibility and financial impact of shifting from a PLG to an enterprise sales model for TaskFlow.

This is not a design exercise. It is the work a product designer does between a brief and a shipped interface. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates redesign Spotify's homepage and none who have worked under real product constraints.

When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."

Canonical roles

Financial Modeling Consultant
The spreadsheet that decides whether a factory gets built, a company gets acquired, or a renewable project gets financed usually has one person's logic running through every cell. Financial modeling consultants build those spreadsheets and defend the assumptions inside them. The work sits between pure finance and storytelling, because a model nobody trusts is just a file. You'd grow into this through repeated DCF and capital budgeting exercises, gradually developing a sense for which inputs deserve scrutiny and which are noise. Tools like Excel and Copilot speed up the construction, but the credibility comes from auditable structure and clean documentation. Students drawn to puzzle-solving with real-world stakes tend to thrive in this work.
