    Chronology of Patrick Bateman’s Life

    Patrick Bateman (MBA Harvard Business School) is a fictional character, the anti-hero and narrator of the novel American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis and its film adaptation. Here is a time-line of his life:

    October 1, 1960 - October 23, 1962: Patrick Bateman is born.
    1980: Bateman graduates from Phillips Exeter Academy.
    1984: Bateman graduates from Harvard University.
    1985: Bateman has a short discussion with his estranged brother Sean about his future.
    1986: Bateman graduates from Harvard Business School.
    1986-?: From the time of his graduation, through the end of American Psycho, Bateman works at Pierce & Pierce.
    1996: Bateman shows up at Victor’s club in Glamorama with “strange stains” on his suit.
    2000: Bateman enters therapy with a Dr. M. This appears in the American Psycho 2000 e-mails. In these emails, he is divorcing Jean, to whom he has been married for at least five years, and has a son. He has apparently started his own brokerage firm and seems to be even richer than he was in the original novel. His tastes are even more rarefied. His homicidal tendencies (or thoughts) seem to have cooled a little with the birth of his son, but have not disappeared completely.
    2003: Ellis kills Patrick Bateman by writing an extraordinary account of the serial killer being trapped in a pier fire. See Lunar Park.

    New Technology Gets Down to Work at Career Services Offices

    Global Talent Systems™ is up and running – running various functions within the career services office, that is.

    The new Global Talent Systems – which launched June 1 – serves as a single platform to automate any and all processes within the entire career services office. It effortlessly manages on-line resume books, job posting, employer relations, student activities and data, and reporting.

    Although we developed Global Talent Systems as the single solution for all of our school partners, you can easily adapt it to your unique brand and specific needs. The technology is modular, enabling you to select particular components you want to use in your office. All components, such as job boards and on-line resume books, function independently or together.

    “Global Talent Systems is the culmination of our years of experience in MBA recruiting, coupled with significant input from our school partners,” said MBA Focus chief executive officer Greg Ruf. “It revolutionizes day-to-day operation of career services, making it more efficient and much more effective in terms of serving students and alumni.”

    For a demonstration or more information about the New Global Talent Systems, please contact MBA FOCUS

    Alumni Fortify Online Resume Books

    An increasing number of schools are offering their alumni the opportunity to participate in online resume books – and put their names in front of recruiters seeking experienced candidates to fill the talent shortage.

    Over the past year, some 20 school partners have begun promoting participation in specialized online resume books for alumni. And more than 13,000 alumni are currently enrolled.

    The addition of alumni candidates enables schools to concurrently serve both former and current students and, ultimately receive well-deserved credit for connecting employer and candidate. Through increasing the total number of candidates – and creating the only single source of access to full-time, part-time and EMBA students as well as the growing number of experienced MBA leaders – MBA Focus and participating schools draw the maximum number of recruiters to the online resume books.

    “We believe the database is a safe, confidential channel for our alumni to reach employers and find out about available positions,” said Matthew Temple, director of alumni career services for Kellogg School of Management. Over the past year, Kellogg has attracted approximately 1400 alumni to its online resume book.

    MBA Focus guided many of the schools through the launch of their alumni registration programs and has established an alumni outreach team to help schools institute and market the program. The team introduces John Edwards, vice president, marketing, who helps schools promote the value of participation to alumni.

    For more information on alumni participation, please contact MBA FOCUS

    Stop the Presses! MBA Focus Goes Green

    MBA Focus is closing the books on unnecessary use of paper; to conserve paper – and save trees – effective June 1, the company and its partner schools have decided to no longer offer printed resume books to recruiters.

    Clients can continue to access all data online and independently print resumes as desired.

    Based on the number of resume books ordered last year, by not printing books, MBA Focus can save at least 75 trees in the upcoming school year alone. Although a relatively small contribution, when you combine it with the resources we save on shipping, we are taking a step toward helping the environment.

    Top 50 MBA Programs Online Resume Books at Your Fingertips
