ABSTRACT

The global job market has never been tougher and for new and returning entrants, the ability to stay focused and motivated coupled with a strong differentiation from the rest of the talent pool is key. Hult is the world's largest business school by graduating class with approximately 2,000 graduates per year. Hult has found that mental toughness is a unique and practical tool for students to use in key areas of job searching and career development. This has been achieved through very rapid growth and a network of five global campuses in Boston, San Francisco, London, Dubai, and Shanghai as well as rotation campuses in Sao Paolo and New York. Whilst the diversity of the Hult student body is an advantage in many ways, it also delivers some more specific issues in terms of approach to job search and student expectations.
