Hults career fairs host 150+ companies worldwide Hult Blog

With recruitment season in full swing, our global campuses recently welcomed over 150 companies to Hult’s recruitment and internship fairs in London, Dubai, San Francisco, and Boston. This is a great opportunity for students to network, hone their skills, and secure career opportunities. In London, Maury a Brazilian Master of International Business student did his homework on the companies beforehand. He put his new-found confidence and networking skills to good use and connected with big name brands like LinkedIn, Amazon, and Cap Gemini: â€Å"I made sure to research the companies ahead of time to target specific opportunities that might lie within marketing. I received a lot of useful networking behavioral advice from my career advisor. Naturally I am quite shy but I now feel skilled in being able to talk to people, which is very useful for events like these.† Maurà ­cio Ribeiro, Hult Master of International Business Class of 2017 Bloomberg capitalizes on Hult talent Rebecca O’Hare—graduate recruiter for Bloomberg—says that Hult is one of the schools that Bloomberg has the most hiring success with, for both internships and full-time positions, and she puts this down to the international mind-set and exposure of Hult grads: â€Å"The mind-set of Hult grads fits very well with Bloomberg because we are very international, and we value diverse backgrounds and experiences. The education and training at Hult is fantastic. Candidates are always polished and display really good interpersonal skills, and I think they receive a lot of support in getting ‘interview-ready’ as well: so they always have really good CVs, and present themselves very well in interviews. For us the real key is having that international mind-set, the language skills, and the regional exposureâ€Å". Rebecca OHare, Bloomberg Students put their networking coaching into practice at the London Career Connections forum David Norton, who works for property search app Get Homie, says that Hult students have a reputation for being more entrepreneurial than the average student: â€Å"Even just chatting to students here today I have heard people’s own business ideas, so it’s a great place to come and find people with that startup mentality†. Hult alumni come back to  campus to coach and recruit their fellow Hultians The career fairs are also a time when alumni come back to campus to recruit. From Deloitte, Hubspot, and Bemis, to EY and Agilisys, many companies attending the fairs have personal experience  of the Hult network. David Domene Luque, a Hult MBA from the Class of 2014 who is now an Area Manager for Amazon, has hired 4 Hult grads in the last year: â€Å"As well as the international mind-set, one of the key reasons I come back to Hult to recruit is the flexibility and adaptability of Hult graduates.â€Å" David Domene Luque, Area Manager, Amazon, Hult MBA Class of 2014 Hult MBA grad David Domene Luque enjoys coming back to campus to hire unique Hult talent and offer advice Boston campus hosts 30+ student interviews with L’Orà ©al The Boston campus has been visited by various companies this year including Domino’s, PWC, L’Orà ©al, Colliers, and Amadeus. In April, Boston’s internship fair attracted almost 40 Boston-based startups, and has resulted in over 80 students securing internships to-date. Students attend a LOreal recruitment session on Boston campus Earlier this month, L’Orà ©al Miami came to Boston for an on-campus recruitment and information session, attended by 100 students and resulting in over 30 interviews on campus. Second round interviews will take place later this month. â€Å"Hult candidates bring years of international experience and a strong sense of entrepreneurial spirit. Some of our top recruits in the last couple of years have been from Hult, and we look forward to continuing to build our strategic partnership.† Munir Kamil, HR Director, L‘Orà ©al Munir Kamil, HR Director for LOrà ©al, runs an infosession on Boston campus Students enjoy meeting Gianguido Bianco, Lancà ´me General Manager, to learn more about their products and try a few samples! San Francisco prioritizes plugging students in to the startup community In San Francisco, 45 companies attended the fair. The startup community was well represented, and many founders directly interacted with students. Some companies extended job offers on the same day, with 35 hires resulting from this day so far to-date. â€Å"My whole team loved it great event! We hired 7 Hult interns this summer. Great results, great job Hult team!† Recruiter feedback San Francisco campus (anonymous survey) Dubai welcomes big name brands to hold interviews on campus   In Dubai, over 20 companies and 70 students attended the fair.

I learned a lot about myself and how I deal with being out of my comfort zone. I learned both soft and hard skills, from how to work in very diverse teams to key accounting metrics and strategy. I was surprised by how weak I was at certain tasks in English or how strong I actually was in other areas. Hult gave me opportunities to try new things and meet people from places I never thought I would have friends. . My internship experiences gave me the chance to broaden my view of different cultures and different companies. I had the opportunity to work and live with people whose values differed from people in my home country. I thought that this would be difficult, but it gave me the chance to reflect on my own values and assess if they were a result of my home country environment or if they were intrinsically mine. .

It taught me a lot about how I see people, how people see me, and how conflict can be resolved in a kind and productive way. The best feedback you get, when delivered constructively, is the most critical because it really feeds into how you lead. I’ve completely reversed my leadership style—the result is so much richer and more powerful when you lead from behind and lead with strength. . Studying in tandem with working, whilst challenging, gave me the perfect platform to directly apply learning concepts into my business environment, the competitive landscape, and the real-estate industry as a whole.

I knew that I’d have likely stayed in my neighborhood for years to come if I didn’t take this opportunity. I’d not lived or studied outside of the U.S. before. So I left my job as a global strategist at an advertising agency and moved halfway around the world. I’ve come back a more culturally aware, well-versed person. I’ve realized that everything is a learning experience and an opportunity for growth. Ill definitely carry this mindset with me into the future. Technology and social media allow us to be different people in several places at once. Im excited to see how I can establish myself in whatever city Ill be lucky enough to call home and still maintain deep connections with people all over the world. I’m inspired by my classmates every day. Hearing some of their life stories and how getting this degree fits into their greater mission has been very humbling. My biggest challenge has been finding the ‘right’ path for me. There have been rooms Ive felt like I shouldnt be in, but now Im proud to feel as though I truly belong, wherever I am.† .
