How to Get Ahead in a Recession: Hult International Business School Launches its Executive Track for

One-Year MBAs.


LONDON, Apr. 27 / PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --


    Hult International Business School, the world's first global business

school, has launched an Executive Track program to help place MBA graduates

into competitive jobs even before they enter the MBA program. The school's

Executive Track program will take one year MBA candidates who demonstrate the

strongest professional capabilities and fast track them with corporate

mentors, career training, company visits and professional seminars.


    Hult's President, Dr. Stephen Hodges, says, "The top concern that any MBA

has is finding a good job upon graduation. In today's shallow job market,

employers are looking for business degree holders who are well prepared,

nimble, and cooperative in a team environment. To that end, we are

hand-picking the highest caliber students before they enter our intense one

year MBA program, and streaming them into this special Executive Track where

employers will be able to carefully evaluate them as potential employees

during the year."


    To qualify for the Executive Track students will go through a rigorous

selection process. Up to fifty of the most promising admitted students for

Hult's incoming September MBA class will be flown, all expenses paid, to

London for a day of intensive assessments. The day will include psychometric

tests, mock-interviews, team exercises, and a dinner with the School's

leadership team and local corporate executives.


    Robin Nurse, Head of Hult's Career Services and Corporate Development

says, "This Executive Track gives the most qualified MBA candidates a head

start towards finding a job even before the MBA program begins. Employers are

just as excited about this as we are since it makes their recruiting process

more targeted."


    Hult, which started life as the first corporate university in the United

States, places a strong emphasis on delivering a practical business

education. The majority of its faculty has spent years in industry as well as

academia, ensuring that students learn concrete skills that apply to real

companies. Dr. Stephen Hodges explains, "The Executive Track program fits

perfectly with the school's mission to provide an enduring and practical

business education that our students use on the job from Day One."
