Resume advice needed as an AN1 w/o deal experience

Looking for advice on what to put on my resume after 6 months on the job and still haven't been on a live deal. I've been on so many pitches / RFPs but nothing live to put in "transaction experience". I want to recruit soon for lateral/PE but I'm having trouble updating my resume with something tangible.

Any words of wisdom would be lovely thank you

might be better to recruit at the end of your 2nd year as an analyst; deal experience will give you an edge over other applicants to PE recruiting
