The objective of CMG’s “Day in a Life Series” is to expose CMG members, as well as the Ryerson student body, to leaders in the financial industry, notably within Capital Markets. These events highlight industry professionals’ daily activities, their path to success, and provide advice and recommendations for students wishing to enter their field. A question and answer session is followed by a professionally catered networking event.
