NETWORK EVENTS
2010 CEMS CAREER FORUM After a crisis year, the hard times in terms of recruitment seemed to have been forgotten as a record number of CEMS Corporate Partners offered pre-scheduled interviews for students and young alumni. It was also the first time that the pre-scheduled interview option had been made available to alumni. This was a conscious move to offer more careers-related services to CEMS graduates already in employment but seeking to make a job or career switch. In addition, this made for a wider and more varied pool of talent from which companies could select the profiles of the greatest interest. Attendance was very much in line with the previous year’s edition. Just as encouraging was the number of skill seminars being offered by companies and academics. Also, a number of career guidance group sessions were organised with the aim of enhancing students’ self-awareness and preparation for the world of work. CEMS Corporate Partners had the opportunity to meet all member schools representatives and discuss further possibilities of cooperation. The social networking side was not neglected either. A large-scale buffet dinner and party was hosted in one of the trendiest venues in Central Europe as a fitting close to a highly successful event.
