This guy is a former peer... Since moved on to another company, now a mutual fund analyst (better position than mine) but he has known me quite some time and I helped him get thru the CFA Level I. I'm thinking about using this guy for Notre Dame who wants someone who can judge your professional and intellectual potential...

1. he knows my work from working with me

2. He knows my intellectual potential from series 7 and CFA Level I

What do you think guys?

It all depends on what he can say about you.

1) Can he talk about your leadership potential with some concrete examples?
2) Are there interesting stories or observations he can make that provide insight into your personal qualities?
3) Is he believable since he wasn't a direct supervisor?

Good luck with the application.

Yes... they are odd in that they only ask for 4 lines for 2 questions. But he knows me well and he is older than me. He has made some mistakes in his career, he went to Babson and has BA business, and so he kinda thinks of himself as a mentor/father to me rather than just a friend. He has incredible respect for my intellectual ablity as well.
