China and Europe play important roles in the global economy and innovation, and Tsinghua University and INSEAD are leading institutions that offer opportunities to learn new knowledge and acquire cutting-edge skills.
The TIEMBA offered me a combination to experience the INSEAD campuses as well as Tsinghua in Beijing, and it turned out to be the best bet I could have ever wished for.
The Career Development Centre was very supportive in narrowing down my career options and eventually converging to consulting as best field for my profile and aspirations.
My decision to pursue an INSEAD MBA was driven by my desire to explore Europe, minimise opportunity costs, be a part of a top business school, and build a diverse network.
Besides giving me the opportunity to formally recruit at the large consulting firms, the INSEAD MBA equipped me with valuable leadership and interpersonal skills.
The CDC helped me translate the vision I had in mind to identify roles and company types I should be looking for. Once offers started coming in, brainstorming together and having an outsider's perspective was a huge advantage.
Prepare to make lasting connections with your cohort of over 200 peers across four campuses, and be ready to dive into completely new areas of learning that you are not familiar with at all. This journey won't be easy, but it will be incredibly rewarding.
The INSEAD experience helped me hone my business acumen, better understand and analyse industry trends and remain relevant in areas I am interested in - in my case, sustainability, energy and infrastructure.
