Take control of your career transition

While the Executive MBA typically offers students an opportunity to excel in their current organization, many self-funded candidates may wish to use their ESMT experience to change their careers – whether that means switching company, industry, country, or functional role.

Regardless of the career goals, ESMT works with students to help them take control of their careers, using a tailored, individualized approach that focuses on personal one-on-one discussions with career change professionals and recruiters.

How the Career Development Center can help you

Career support and guidance

Students wishing to embark on a career change during the EMBA can contact ESMT during the application process for a CV feedback review. The Admissions team provides first feedback on the candidate's fit with ESMT and where synergy is possible for career change.

During the program, students can focus on personal and professional development to advance their careers. Individual coaching provides another opportunity, in addition to group-coaching and peer-coaching, for participants to self-reflect and plan their future careers.

Contact the Career Development Center team if you have questions about our services and events.
