GS Academies London - open to men? (no mention of women ONLY)

Previously, these academies used to be called "Women Trader Academies" or "Women in Banking" academies. 

This year, they are called "Trader Academy", sponsored by Women Network. 

I'm confused because it doesn't say whether men are allowed to apply as well. No info is given on this. 

Does anyone have any insight?

Based on the most helpful WSO content, the naming change from "Women Trader Academies" to "Trader Academy" sponsored by the Women Network might suggest a broader inclusivity. However, there is no explicit information provided in the context about whether men are allowed to apply. Historically, such programs have been targeted at women to promote diversity, but the lack of a clear "women-only" label this year could indicate a shift.

If you're interested, it would be best to directly check the application details or reach out to the program organizers for clarification.

I’m pretty sure on the job description is says “sponsored by the women’s network “ or something like that. So maybe open to anyone on paper but only women in reality?

 

The website says it's sponsored by the women's network but the official listing makes no mention of it.

It's very confusing. 

 

Fucking hell that HV is intense

the questions aren't hard, it's the layering to each question and sometimes 3 bullet points in 2 minutes. 

I was sweating like a right dog through all of that.
