Experience
“Before LBS, I was on track for a career in investment – but because of my entrepreneurship experience and my passion for corporate business, my LBS Career Centre mentor encouraged me to be open to opportunities in strategy and small businesses. He urged me to keep going in that direction. It was important advice and helped me find a position that was the right fit.”

Experience
“I wanted to start my career in London and knew that the best way to do it would be to join a business school with strong ties to global financial organisations and institutions, which LBS is known to have. It’s also one of the best cities for tech; it has an incredible startup scene, which is something the analytics job market goes hand in hand with, making the city a great place for analytics roles.”

MFA
Experience
“I owe it to the LBS Career Centre and the School’s supportive alumni for helping me pursue my dream opportunity within the buy-side investment space so early in my professional career. The opportunities made available through the Career Centre to visit different companies and attend both formal and informal networking events, including with LBS alumni, gave me a clearer picture of the real-world professional opportunities within finance for an LBS graduate.”

Experience
“When it came to career direction, I was weighing up M&A Advisory and portfolio management. I started using the LBS Career Centre; Degree Education coaches Roger Howgego, a former Managing Director at Lehman Brothers and Christian Dummett, Executive Director, Head of Career Centre, were amazing. Initially, I was set on investment banking and Christian gave me some advice that he said he tells all students keen on a career in this sector. He told me to develop a pitchbook to use as a door opener and conversation starter in the recruiting process; this is ultimately what got me interviews with Directors and Managing Directors at some of the biggest investment banks in the capital.”

MBA
Experience
“The Career Centre was a very important resource to me at LBS. I went to nearly every presentation they organised with so many different companies and I took advantage of “coffee chat” meetings to narrow in on what I wanted to do after the MBA. I also used the different career coaches to help me prepare for interviews. I would go to them with one particular question for an interview I needed to focus on, such as ‘what’s the biggest challenge you’ve had in your career?’, and work with them for 30 minutes on an answer. They also set up peer-to-peer leader sessions, which I used for interview prep – all of which helped me perfect the way I told my story in interviews to make the big career switch I made.”

EMBA
Experience
“The EMBA meant I stopped seeing my career in a linear way; I’m now more open-minded about where I might end up. Before the programme, I’d never have contemplated becoming an entrepreneur – but after my Social Enterprises elective, I discovered that social entrepreneurship is a field I’m really interested in. With this realisation and my newfound business knowledge, I’ve created optionality around my long-term future.”

Because of this diversity, different people can help you in different ways, and it all starts with establishing a respectful relationship with each other.”

“I left LBS with a truly global network that I know will provide me with advice and investment opportunities in the future. I now have connections all over the world – in London, Canada and China – who I regularly bounce ideas off and receive valuable advice from.
