MBS' Class Profile Brochure
Thursday, February 14th, 2008Now that I’m close to graduation, I’ve gotten myself a spot on MBS’ Class Profile Brochure.
The brochure is a quick, personalized overview of the latest MBS graduating batch; i.e. not just a class profile summary of the latest incoming batch. It’s an e-book with eight student profiles per page and will be available to recruiters and employers who want to learn about MBS and its students.
It will give recruiters and employers a good overview of the students who will be graduating soon (i.e. students’ skills, experience levels, backgrounds, languages spoken, etc. — more so than what recruiters can currently access) as well as a means to directly contact the students they are interested in (via e-mail).
This is particularly useful to those companies — notably international ones — that can’t visit the campus to make a presentation or talk to students directly. It’s also a great way for MBS to show off its incredibly diverse student body.
Here — with a munged e-mail address and my Commander Khan avatar instead of my professional photograph — is my profile:
