Careers Despite crisis – wide spectrum of company presentations at HHL In Fall 2009, HHL’s Career Service organized a series of special opportunities for students to meet with potential employers. Ten corporate presentations, workshops and recruiting events were held by high-ranking company representatives, including a number of HHL alumni. They were followed by an informal get-together to provide an additional chance for an intensive exchange between students and representatives from the corporate world. While HHL alumni currently working at McKinsey & Company, Inc. gave HHL students useful advice from first-hand experience in preparation for applying to consulting firms in their “Application Training,” representatives from The Boston Consulting Group GmbH provided an insight into the implications of the financial crisis and the consequent challenges for companies in their presentation “Thriving in a Damaged Economy – Leadership in a (Post-)Crisis World.” Another topic was the turnaround project in- volving a well-known retail chain; this was the focus of the presentation entitled “Customercentric Retailing – The Future of Retail” by Roland Berger Strategy Consultants GmbH, which was given by one of the consultants and a representative from the client side. In addition to consulting firms, financial enterprises also presented themselves on HHL’s campus as attractive employers. For example, Deutsche Bank AG gave an impressive overview of its huge variety of business activities and the numerous career opportunities available for students and graduates, while the investment banking divi- sion of Credit Suisse Securities (Europe) Limit- ed presented a recent project dealing with the investment of Qatar Holding LLC in Volkswagen AG and Porsche Automobil Holding SE.

In Fall 2009, HHL start-ups had their first chance to present themselves as employers at the 1 st HHL Start-up Career Fair. Six start-ups, imedo.de, JNB Healthlab/ flymedic, Lecturio, Playnik, SunCoal Industries and Team Europe Ventures, – all founded by HHL alumni – visited HHL and provided an insight into their day-to-day business, the challenges they faced during the formation of their companies and, of course, career opportunities for HHL students and graduates. The second intention of the event organized conjointly by Dr. Stephan Stubner, Director of the Program for International Entrepreneurship and HHL’s Career Service, was to inspire students to start their own businesses some day. With over 80 start-ups founded by its graduates, HHL is one of the premier incubators of future entrepreneurs. After the presentations, HHL students were able to network further with HHL entrepre- HHL News – wiNter 2009/2010 43 neurs and to exchange business ideas during the get-together over a delicious barbecue and a few drinks.
