Hi!
I’m a corporate recruiter in the Portland area. I’m hoping to link up with some local HR professionals that I’ll continue to network with once we get back home. Please write so we can make sure to meet at the conference: kelsey.miller@banfield.net.

Some soundbites and summaries from the panel of superstar MBA students
Todd Raphael October 19, 2007 11:09 am ET
Paul Hughes:
“Once you invest in a global citizen like myself, I will give everything I can to give back to you.”
On online applications: “It’s such a time-consuming process.”
On what his career center says: “Get yourself off of Facebook.” Also: “LinkedIn gives off more of a professional feel.”
Francisco Gomez:
On the impression he got from one consulting company at a career fair/conference: “Here’s a wall between you and me. We’re already consultants for this firm, and we’re big shots.”
On people who visit campus but are just representatives, but are not actually hiring: “I don’t like dealing with people who are not decision-makers.”
Also: “I don’t want to join a company to leave in a year.”
Jason D’Olier:
On what feeling he wants to get from companies: “Being able to give someone the flexibility or communicate the information they need to know in an upfront manner, so as not to be seen as playing games.”
On email: “Send specific emails to students saying we’ve seen your resume [and] we’re interested … not a mass e-mail to the whole class, but the people whose resumes stand out to you.”
Also: “Having fun on your job is important, but it’s definitely not the top criteria.”
Wesley Alexander:
“One of the best experiences I had was with Intel. … they were very honest with me and very forthcoming … ”
On recruiters: “If the recruiter knows as much about the business as they can … that’s very important to us.”
Christine Schwaninger:
(On what she likes in companies) — “A recruiter who’s really responsive … [where] I don’t feel like my resume has just been left to the ether … some recruiters don’t understand the value yet of evening MBA students.”
On work/life balance: “I work very hard, but I feel that there should be a rational balance.”
Also: “Be honest, sell the actual culture.”

I love this quote …

… that an attendee just said during the q-and-a during Daniel Pink’s session.
“Luck favors the well-prepared.”
