That's exactly the ambition of the two-year MSc in General Management program.

We measure social contacts acquired during paid work while enrolled in high school and rely on class-plant fixed-effects models to isolate the effects of interest. One third of post-graduation matches are formed at establishments where youths worked during their studies. Furthermore, graduates are much more likely to match with sites to which adult coworkers from these jobs have relocated. These patterns are strikingly counter-cyclical. Contacts are twice as important for job matching in deep recessions as in good times, suggesting that informal contacts and social networks are crucial determinants of matching patterns in bad times. "Male Childlessness, Economic Inequality and Gender Norms " - with Erica Lindahl and Anna Sjögren Abstract: In this paper, we document trends in male childlessness in Sweden. We show that the skill gap in male parenthood has declined and that childlessness has increased more in the top and middle of the education distribution than in the bottom. This development stands in contrast to the idea that declines in the likelihood of men to form a family can be understood as a matter of marginalization of men at the bottom of the education and earnings distribution.
The Class of 2020 is entering a job market that has been turned upside-down by COVID-19. Entry-level jobs often aren't a fit for working from home, and displaced employees with more experience are becoming unexpected competition. As a result, many have had to rethink their job search. "Fear is one of the best motivators there is, and high unemployment is causing fear, " says Tom Gimbel, CEO of staffing and recruiting firm LaSalle Network. "I think it will work out fine in the end, but right now it will be a challenge until there is either a vaccine or treatment for coronavirus. The landscape is different for new job seekers. " Expectations and appropriate steps are changing. Here is what the job market looks like and how new graduates can prepare: Industries A study from the job site Monster found that job seekers are willing to shift their focus of industries and frontline occupations. Many are looking into healthcare and logistics as industries. "Adjust on the fly or consider an essential field in addition to your chosen one, such as infrastructure work, transportation, and IT, " suggests Brian Martucci, finance editor for the personal finance site Money Crashers.
"To improve your chances of securing a position, you'll have to look at opportunities you may not have considered in the past. " Temporary roles In February, LaSalle Network surveyed 2020 college graduates and found that 25% would be willing to take a temporary role. In April, that number rose to 89%. While not every new college graduate has to take a temporary job, Gimbel says those that are willing could see it as a chance to prove themselves. "If you graduated from a top-tier school, it could seem like a big slap in the face. However, it evens the playing field among colleges, " he says. "Somebody who went to what is perceived a lesser school may get an opportunity with a company that may not normally hire them. Temp roles are one of the best vehicles to get your foot in the door. " Timing It's natural to want to hit the ground running when you're ready to start your career, but Gimbel recommends that new college graduates hold off until the end of May or when the economy begins to reopen.
