We realise that a programme like the Executive MBA (EMBA) is a big investment for candidates, therefore we always like to ensure that we provide you with as much information as possible when taking such a big step.
Below are some examples of opportunities we have in place – in order to help you make that decision:
Class visits:
Why not attend an Executive MBA lecture, alongside other students who are currently in the programme? This will give you the chance to first-handily experience the quality of the lectures as well as the excellent interaction between students within a classroom environment.
“Through the class visit I was able to gauge the mind-set/frequency of the EMBA classroom. It enabled me to understand the importance of class participation and witness each student’s role to enrich overall class’ learning experience”. Suyash Shrivastav (EMBALJ2018)
Personal consultation:
A personal consultation gives you a chance to meet someone from the recruitment team on campus. We can guide you and answer any questions that you may have regarding the programme or the application process itself. We also regularly travel around Europe to meet candidates in a city near them.
A conversation with a member of alumni or a current student:
Although we try to give you as much information as we can when answering queries, sometimes getting those answers from current students or alumni can prove to be far more helpful and reassuring. Whilst a current student can answer any questions you may have about their EMBA journey so far, an alumnus can tell you more about their life after the programme.
CV reviews:
We encourage all prospects before taking any step in their application process to have a CV review done by one of the team members in the EMBA recruitment team. This ensures that you have the right skillset and experience needed for the programme.
Information sessions:
Our monthly information sessions are delivered by the Recruitment and Admissions teams and give prospects further information on our programmes. These sessions also provide an opportunity for you to meet current students and alumni, as well as other candidates planning to apply to the School.
“I cannot emphasise enough the importance of attending the Information Sessions held at the school. One is able to get first hand insight into exactly what is offered on the course and also speak to other potential candidates on the night. More importantly, you get to hear first-hand experiences from a selected alumni panel which was priceless in my view” Dietrich Stadllman EMBALS2018
