Dedicated career services

Marcel Kalis, head of career services at ESMT Berlin says the team works very closely with MBA students and the class sizes allow this.

All MBA students are offered a certified career coach, and throughout the year students ca meet them on a regular basis to work on career development plans and more.

A lot of attention is placed on networking, which is important due to the strong network-based ethos in Berlin and Germany.

For those whose career objectives aren’t so clear cut, the career services encourage students to get in touch with alumni working in the same career track.

There are also opportunities for visits to companies including Amazon, Zalando, HERE Technologies, Facebook and more.

What the students say

Joshua K Pritchett, MBA student, Class of 2020 chose ESMT Berlin for its focus on innovation and globalization.
