Best Practices Overview

Diversity

Diversity outreach is a key focus of our clients. Sourcing and reaching this target audience can prove challenging. However, through our student profile questionnaire, you can now search on both diversity and academic clubs. Additionally you can keyword search such terms as ‘National Black MBA Association', NSHMBA, MLT, etc.

GMAT/ GPA

Many companies have minimum GMAT score or GPA requirements for candidates. GradLeaders Recruiting can assist you in locating this information for students who list this detail on their resume. Note that not all programs allow their students to include this information on their resumes; some programs advise against including this information while others leave it up to the individual student's discretion.

Competitor or Other Specific Company Experience

GradLeaders Recruiting allows you to identify candidates who have held internships, full-time positions or who have worked on consulting projects within other companies. Additionally, you are able to identify candidates who currently work at a particular organization through keyword search.

Student Interest

MBA employers want to identify and hire top echelon candidates who are zealous about their careers and their personal interests or who have excelled in activities or competitions. Membership in academic clubs can be a good indicator of dedication or enthusiasm and excelling at activities, competitions, etc. can demonstrate determination and drive. A key way to hone in on such candidates is through the club affiliation data and keyword searches.

Work Authorization

If your organization has international locations, certain work authorizations will be necessary for your employees. 

Former Employees

A good way to connect with candidates who are familiar with your company's products, culture or processes is to search for past employees or interns via keyword search.
