Top 10 apps for MBA recruiters

2013-07-16T06:22:00.000-07:00

Are you a MBA recruiter with an Apple iDevice? If you are, then you are holding a powerful recruiting tool in your hand. Whether you are jotting down notes about candidates, looking for lodging and dining when you travel, giving a presentation on-campus, or just unwinding after a long day of work, here are 10 mobile apps for every MBA recruiter:

10. Global Focus - And finally, if you're looking for a better way to recruit on the campus of the world's top b-schools, try our Global Focus mobile app. The Global Focus mobile app lets you minimize the paper chase by putting the world’s best talent at your fingertips. Access the resumes and profiles of candidates at our partner schools and follow-up with potential hires directly from the app.

9. Flight Control - At the end of a long day of trying to land the perfect candidate, you need to unwind and have a little fun. Flight Control is that perfect diversion. Use your finger to guide planes to the runway for a smooth landing -- but make sure two planes don’t have intersecting flight paths!

8. Keynote - Have to give a presentation about your company to career services on the fly? Keynote is the ideal presentation companion.

Top 5 tips to improve your job-seeker profile

2013-04-30T06:07:00.000-07:00

You've undoubtedly completed a handful of online profiles over the past 5 years. You have a Facebook profile, a Twitter bio, a LinkedIn resume, and maybe even a MySpace account. You've also probably created profiles on your favorite news and shopping sites. These profiles are a dime-a-doze, with standard questions (i.e. favorite quotes, movies, job title, interests, and accomplishments) and generic information for the general public. Anyone can signup, and everyone's profile looks the same. It is not a niche network or an exclusive club.

The MBA Focus network is as exclusive as it gets. Only top-ranked b-schools and elite MBA students or alumni from those programs can join. Plus every MBA employer who wants access to this top talent must first be approved by each school's career service office. But even with such limited competition, it can be hard to stand out as an elite job-seeking MBA candidate.

The MBA Focus job-seeker profile is designed to help you differentiate yourself from other MBAs with similar resumes. Here are five tips to improve your profile:

Be Complete: Don't just complete the required sections. Fill out as many fields as you can, including the top 5 most searched-on profile attributes: Geographic Preference, Industry Experience, Function Experience, Function Preference, Industry Preference.
Be Accurate: Don't just select...

Top 10 social networks to connect with the "New Class" of MBAs

2012-10-08T06:18:00.000-07:00

Are you looking for a way to reconnect with MBAs your career service office has lost touch with? Social networks are the best source to find those graduates and rebuild meaningful relationships with them. Try interacting with them via:

Facebook: With over 1 billion active users and more than 42 million pages with 10 or more likes, Facebook is the perfect place to connect with MBAs. Your school/program should have its own Facebook page that candidates can “like” and get daily updates on relevant news and events. By creating an official Facebook page for your school, you can easily reach people who are specifically interested in what you have to say.
Twitter: Twitter is a proven marketing tool and an effective outreach device. Many schools have a presence on Twitter. And some even have multiple accounts, including an entire recruiter-oriented presence (i.e. @HBSRecruitMBA). Your candidates are already using Twitter to communicate, research, promote and personally brand themselves – you should be doing the same for your school’s/program’s brand. Take a moment each day to tweet about something relevant or interesting.
LinkedIn: Where Facebook is considered a more personal space, LinkedIn has been defined as the “professional” social network. Use LinkedIn to connect with students and alumni from your school. You should not only create a LinkedIn group for your program, but also create subgroups for each class year, to better connect (and stay connected) with your program’s job-seeking candidates.
