Mandeep Sahota
British
Former Recruiter, HR, & Talent Acquisition Strategist
Career Advisor, Hult International Business School
10+ Years’ Recruitment Experience
Hult: What brought you to Hult? Mandeep: As a recruiter, I would come across Hult students applying for roles in the companies I was working for and they stood out to me. I’ve always worked in startup culture environments and am suited to places that encourage autonomy with a solid team spirit. That’s what I found at Hult.
H: How do you stay up to date? M: I attend all the corporate events that happen on campus to keep an eye on the market trends and expand my knowledge. It’s what we encourage our students to do but we also do it as well.

Career Advisor, Hult International Business School
Trained in Transformational Coaching
6 Years’ Recruitment Experience
Hult: What can a former recruiter bring to coaching? Alex: I can answer questions about recruiting processes, internal referrals, and how to prepare for interviews. When I review students’ resumes, I always put myself back into my old recruiter’s shoes to make sure that I give the best possible advice.
H: Any common success factors? A: The most successful students are usually the ones who are very proactive: they develop a job search strategy early, they attend careers events, build a strong network, and stay very engaged.
