Asking MD to hook up exit opps
In an attempt to preserve anonymity, I was the coverage analyst for a mega cap deal that made headlines, etc. For some context, our M&A team was staffed to the brim, my coverage team was extremely thin. I effectively crushed it, and the MD, who is also our global head, knows that and knows how I...
