MBA News: Number of Women on Wall Street Declines
MBA News: Number of Women on Wall Street Declines posted on February 6th, 2010 | Category: MBA College News | No Comments »
The New York Times reports that despite an increase in female representation in business schools, the number of women on Wall Street is in decline. Women now compose almost 40% of business school classes, but only 20% of those women pursue Wall Street careers, meaning that out of every one-hundred students in a class, only eight women will head to Wall Street. Of course, where there is under-representation, there is also opportunity. Considering these numbers, it should be a little bit easier for women to find jobs during a tough hiring environment, compared to their male counterparts.
