Looking to go into M&A CDD roles (open to sectors, but my background is in life sciences), and I have been completing the WSP Accounting, Financial Analysis, and Financial & Valuation Modelling (DCF, LBO, Comps & M&A) courses. Any tips/advice on making the transition, or companies/people to reach out to? Happy to go entry-level to make the transition work.
