MBA Focus™ 2008 White Paper: A Single Path to Hiring MBA Talent

We are excited to offer you our latest white paper, “A Single Path to Hiring MBA Talent: The expanded role of career services to students and alumni, and what it means to recruiters.”

Since the publication of last year’s white paper (“New Directions in MBA Recruiting”), it has become clear that the importance of career services offices to hiring firms has greatly increased. This year’s paper focuses on the fact that MBA career services offices are evolving, with increasing rapidity, to serve not only students from all three walks of MBA programs – part-time, full-time and executive – but also alumni.
