Over 100 firms are set to take part in IE Business School’s 9th International Careers Fair from October 5 to 9. Companies will interview more than 800 students and graduates of IE master programs and give presentations on their hiring policies and key lines of strategic development.

 
The overriding objective of the Careers Fair is to serve as an interface between recruiting companies and the students and alumni of IE Business School’s MBA, Executive MBA and specialized master programs. Participating companies have an international profile that requires top-level managers for their organizations to meet the demands of expansion and diversification. This year’s participating companies include Accenture, Amadeus, Banesto, BBVA, Grupo Santander, Caixa Galicia, Caja Madrid, Avon, Grupo SOS, Avon, KPMG, L’Oreal, LVMH, Loewe, The Chantelle Group, Bulgari, Philips, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Roland Berger, Tata motors, Infosys, Laboratorios Servier, and Telefónica. The last day of the fair will be dedicated to the field of law and tax, and this year over 20 law firms will present their organizations and conduct interviews with students from the Master in Legal Practice, Master in Tax Law and Master in International Legal Practice. Law firms at this year’s Careers Fair include Allen & Overy, Cuatrecasas, Deloitte, Ernst & Young, Garrigues, and Uría & Menéndez.

Some 85% of the students and alumni that attending the Fair will be interviewed by participating firm. The Fair enables students and alumni to gain a privileged insight into the key strategic developments of the participating firms on both a national and international level, and of their hiring policies and job opportunities. Rosalía Rodriguez, Associate Director of Careers Management at IE Business School, commented that “now that recovery is on the horizon companies are acutely aware that they need the best talent to meet the challenges of this new phase”.

We are ready to start a long list of outreach activities in Northamerica during this Fall 2009, to bring the new programs, activities and alumni support for the candidates students of IE Business School.

Do not miss the opportunity to learn about the admission process to IE Business School, the partner schools exchange programs, internship opportunities and the financial aid options for candidate students. Most of all you shall be able to get the feel of the “IE experience”.

Madrid/Boston- IE Business School and Brown University are delighted to announce the formalization of a multifaceted relationship, bringing together one of Europe’s leading business schools and a leading North American research university.

Brown and IE share a commitment to academic excellence and to innovation in research and teaching.  Both are committed to the importance of the entrepreneurial spirit in the academic world no less than in the worlds of management and technological innovation.

We anticipate developing a wide range of research and teaching opportunities together over the coming years as we explore synergies between our interdisciplinary approaches to graduate and undergraduate training for leadership in our increasingly global world.

“This initiative comes at a particularly propitious time, as the global economic situation calls for a systematic rethinking of financial systems and management paradigms. There needs to be a much wider approach to understanding the role of corporations and managers within our global society. Managers need to be exposed to broader philosophies and schools of thought, building a wider vision of value creation and sustainability. This alliance is a major step forward in developing a higher education model which is focused on developing students who are global citizens as well as well rounded professionals” says Santiago Iñiguez, Dean of IE Business School.  Read MORE
