“The Graduate Career Center team is genuinely invested in our success and was always available for guidance. As a career changer, it was great having a resource to help evaluate potential paths. I love my current role, and I wouldn’t have it today without my corporate residency.”

The employer experience
Ben Ghosh, Head of Revenue at Butcherbox
“The residency provides us a source of talent to hire, and it gives both the MBA student and the hiring manager the ability to get familiar with each other first to see if the relationship will be a good long-term fit. There’s simply less risk for hiring a resident that we already know. This workforce development model has been a big success for my company.”
Sue McPoland, Former Director of Global Consumer Insights at Hasbro
“We need the right people, so that’s where we turn to our Northeastern residents…They’re involved in all phases and they get the complete experience of seeing a project through from start to finish.”
Bill Forbes, Senior Director of Global Supply Chain at Raytheon
“When you hire externally, there’s always a risk. But with Northeastern residents, we already know the quality of their work and the caliber of their education. We’ve challenged them, pressure-tested them, and given them tough assignments over six months on corporate residency, and found out where their strengths and weaknesses are. It just makes so much sense to hire them, and it makes for a smooth transition.”
