Just sharing thoughts here, but men make up the most in M&A / PE by far. Excluding men is not wise if you want to have a career in M&A! Best of luck

Thanks for the feedback. I work in M&A/PE and am the only woman at my firm. I’m looking to build relationships with other women who can relate to my experiences.

Rest assured that I’m still playing the game and building relationships with men everyday.

This is actually a great idea if the only focus is to network with other women in this field. But if networking in general, making a separate form for both men and women would be much better. Just my thoughts :)

Coming as a Senior in Audit, with recent FDD exposure (2 deals, obviously not much). I was looking for something more than just number crunching, wanting a mix of quant / quali / strategic work. M&A Advisory or a Corp Strategy role is where I'm looking to end up long term.

Thanks in advance!
