Thinking about starting a local women’s committee for my (heavily male-dominated) industry. Have any of y’all been a part of something like this, and do you recommend it? If so, what do you talk about in meetings? What are the high points for you?

My colleagues and I co-founded a non profit community for women in creative roles in advertising and advertising production. We discuss topics that affect many of us - how we lead differently, how we network differently, how we deal with guilt with and process emotions. We do workshops for how to manage up, and stay true to ourselves and our values. We've hosted wellness workshops and networking events. we discuss responsible representation in advertising and the content we create. So much to talk about. Been doing this for 4 years now and have yet to feel like we've run out of topics and ideas to activate and advocate on.

High part for sure is the sense of community we've built, and feeling the impact we're making on our community members lives. It is magic.

Stellar work 💫✨ thank you so much for sharing, and keep making a difference!

I am asked during this RE analyst interview to build a real estate model from scratch. My background is commercial banking and I am used to analyzing real estate deals from the lender side not the developer. The interviewer is generous I must say he’s giving me a few days to complete. However this model is for a ground up multifamily development. I have no prior experience building one. I can find models online but all very complexe to reproduce. How would you handle? Do you have model to share?

Looking for advice - I doubled my scope in the last few months, and have been seeking a promotion and raise to match my increased scope. The company is offering me a title increase with no change in comp until the next cycle (Feb ‘23), and a 1 year cash retention bonus (stay for a year or have to give it back). My concerns are that if I sign the retention bonus, the company no longer has an incentive to give me a good raise in February,l. Thoughts?
