Master of International Business , 2014
I attended Hult Shanghai for the first eight months then rotated to San Francisco . I went back to Vietnam after graduation . I love San Francisco , but I do believe Asia is the most challenging place that can help me develop my career . I am a Client Solutions Manager at Vsource , a talent source company , and I have been working with top companies such as Apple , Amazon , and Activision .
Data becomes more important in every industry , especially in Recruiting . Working as a Client Solutions Manager , I always need to learn more about the new trends . My company also builds a Talent Analytics Lab , where all the Data Scientists work on how to improve the clients ’ recruiting strategy . Therefore , I selected the Big Data Analytics course .
The course took place in Shanghai and was spread over four full days . It was very short but gave me some good ideas about what I should do to analyze Big Data . During the course , I had a chance to meet with current students as well as some former classmates at Hult Shanghai . It was a very nice experience , and I ’ ve already recommended a lot of alumni to participate in the program next year .

Master of Business Administration , 2014
I took the Ashridge Summer Programs in 2015 and 2016 since graduating from Hult . The courses offered at Ashridge are Change Management and Leading in a VUCA World .
The Lifelong Learning Opportunities program provides me the opportunity to stay up-to-date in subjects that interest me . Also , it helps me to stay in touch with both alumni and the school , as well as meeting with new interesting people from different backgrounds and age ranges . It helps me to disconnect with my day-to-day job , reconnect with the rest of the world , and reflect about taking new paths or staying where I am currently . Interacting with other alumni provides me a good benchmark when it comes to potential career paths to pursue .
The best parts of the Ashridge Summer Program are the great and interesting people , the wonderful location , the fantastic services and catering , and the course itself . The course is like a crash course completed in a weekend and it has provided me a reasonably good overview of the topic . I have already recommended the experience to other colleagues . It is totally worth it .
