    I would like to see more virtual team building activities. I think these exercises are effective in a professional work environment to help build collaboration and teamwork. These challenges could also be used as a fun challenge to help bring people and like minds closer together which makes networking more effective.

    Hello. 

    I would like to have more face to face networking meetings, as far is possible. I would recommend monthly meetings, with a extensive communication, thus we can all be aware of those meetings and sign up with time in advance. It would be very interesting too to have speakers, however that can be offered every two meetings.

    Hi Irene,

    Thank you for your feedback! Our Spain Alumni Chapter is quite active. I am not sure if the chapter has returned to in person meetings, but I encourage you to reach out to the Chapter President, Isabel Córdova Samaniego, to stay connected. Please keep an eye out for virtual events that will be shared by BGS in the coming months. These events will also offer networking opportunities!

    I would like to see more networking events, preferably with financial professionals. During this pandemic, networking and building relationships has been challenging. In addition, nowadays, more companies are putting emphasis on hiring based on character. Finance is a very competitive field, networking can be a great way to make a difference and achieve key career goals.

    It would be nice to see weekly virtual networking sessions and job fair opportunities.  It would give members a chance to network with recruiters who either work in their target industry or have the job role they're striving to obtain!
