Gardner and Adam Zalisk. Two senior management consultants are chatting with each other between meetings: “I heard we managed to staff the new project in New Jersey. Sounds like a good team — I don’t know the junior guy, do you?” Says the first. “I don’t know Greg yet either,” says the second.
“But I’m relieved we were able to secure somebody, given how short-staffed we are. Senior executives in professional firms aspire to match the right people to the right work, but here, these senior executives don’t have enough to go on. But what if that’s not so? Greg, in short, lacks a career narrative. This is not surprising. First, it should be easy to remember and retell. Second, it should meaningfully link your past successes to your near and long-term development needs and suggest the kinds of assignments that would help to achieve those objectives.
Third, your narrative needs to hang together with the right combination of honesty, humility, and personal flavor. An example of a poor narrative would be this: Sustainability Analyst | Sustainability Roundtable Inc. Type: Full time Position Description Sustainability Roundtable, Inc.

You hear that sort of thing all the time; a lament to the wisdom that seems to come too late in life, or at least later than we'd like it to. The current generation of up-and-comers certainly has its opportunities and its challenges. Having grown up with high-tech, they're probably best suited to thrive in the brave new connected world. And I happen to think the digital revolution has only just begun.
On the other hand, the world is in the midst of cultural and economic upheaval. Perhaps that's nothing new, but it is challenging, to say the least. There's so much information, so many choices, so much distraction, just those things alone present more complexity than any generation has ever had to deal with. That said, I have a sneaking suspicion that the wisdom that comes from real-world experience applies to anyone in any generation. If you want to achieve great things, you have to do great work. Take big risks.

Sustainability Manager | CSR Jobs. ANN INC. Careers › Job › Sr Manager - Corporate Social Responsibility. Hiring: 9 Things You Wish Job Candidates Knew. Job candidates say a lot during an interview. As the interviewer, so do you. But there's a lot you wish you could say to job candidates well before the interview ever takes place: 1.
I want you to be likable. Obvious, sure, but also critical. So I want you to smile. A candidate who makes a great first impression and sparks a real connection instantly becomes a big fish in a very small short-list pond. You may have solid qualifications, but if I don't think I'll enjoy working with you, I'm probably not going to hire you. Life is too short. 2. Oh, I do want you to want the job--but not before you really know what the job entails. No matter how much research you've done, you can't know you want the job until you know everything possible about the job. 3. A sad truth of interviewing is that later I often don't recall, unless I refer to my notes, a significant amount about some of the candidates.
Instead of letting me choose, give me one or two notable ways to remember you. 5. 7. 8. 9. Job Interviews: 5 Questions Great Candidates Ask. Entrepreneuriat : On n'a plus de pétrole, a-t-on encore des idées ? (Les Mardis de l'ESSEC) Classement du Financial Times: une dangereuse imposture. Le Financial Times publie chaque année un classement des écoles de management européennes qui est devenu la bible béate des dirigeants des dites écoles… HEC, qui se glorifiait de sa première place, a été détrôné cette année par l’IE business School de Madrid… L’Insead a chuté en quatrième place, l’EM Lyon est remontée etc… Ce classement révéré est artificiel, car certains critères utilisés par le Financial Times sont aberrants et déconnectés de la réalité de la qualité des étudiants ou des besoins des entreprises recrutant dans ces écoles.
Un des critères principaux du classement est par exemple la capacité de recherche, mesurée par le nombre de publications dans des revues spécialisées de catégorie A. Or ces publications ésotériques sont lues incestueusement par des chercheurs et des professeurs, et non par les étudiants ou les entreprises. Les articles publiés sont des élucubrations statistiques n’ayant aucun intérêt pour la gestion des entreprises.
