The Hult network A world of opportunity

Meet Vineet. Vineet Daniels is a Hult MBA from the Class of 2012. He came from India to study at San Francisco campus and moved to LA after graduation. Vineet is a big fan of the Hult network, which spans 170 countries worldwide. He says its helped him secure many of his roles since graduation, including his current job at Google, where he is a Program Manager. We asked him to tell us more. Vineet Daniels Program Manager, Google Indian Class of 2012 Hey Vineet! Great to talk to you. Tell us how you built your network while at Hult? Hult organized events that helped us network with local tech companies. This grew my contacts as well as my confidence. I also got a lot of insight from the professors who are active within the tech community. Whats useful about the Hult network? Its a great resource to rely on when Im looking for a role or trying to build my professional network. Or simply if I need some help or advice on something Im working on. For example, when negotiating my salary for a new role, Hult alumni in the same industry/field/geography are a great source of advice and information. How have you drawn on the network since graduation? I’ve leveraged the Hult network a ton of times since graduation! Whether it’s a new role, a contact, a question around salary, or advice—it’s such a great asset to rely on. It’s been instrumental in me obtaining my past three professional roles, including my current job at Google. In fact, I’ve hired more than ten Hult grads myself! And Ive helped many more with preparing for interviews or perfecting their resumes. I’ve hired more than ten Hult grads myself! And Ive helped many more with preparing for interviews or perfecting their resumes. Can you give an example of how the Hult network helped you get in to Google? Sure. So, Google puts a strong emphasis on internal referrals. I looked up some alumni from my days at Hult who were working at Google and reached out to them. They were happy to vouch for me. Thats another thing that Hult does well—you work with so many different people throughout your program, youre never on the same team twice, so you get to work closely with pretty much all of your classmates. What makes the Hult network special? I love the cultural and industry diversity within the network. Hult students are placed at the helm of so many different industries and they gain the skills and education to make a real impact. One of the best things about Hult is the real-world experience you gain on the program, and that sets us up in a strong position for life after graduation.

I learned a lot about myself and how I deal with being out of my comfort zone. I learned both soft and hard skills, from how to work in very diverse teams to key accounting metrics and strategy. I was surprised by how weak I was at certain tasks in English or how strong I actually was in other areas. Hult gave me opportunities to try new things and meet people from places I never thought I would have friends. . My internship experiences gave me the chance to broaden my view of different cultures and different companies. I had the opportunity to work and live with people whose values differed from people in my home country. I thought that this would be difficult, but it gave me the chance to reflect on my own values and assess if they were a result of my home country environment or if they were intrinsically mine. .

It taught me a lot about how I see people, how people see me, and how conflict can be resolved in a kind and productive way. The best feedback you get, when delivered constructively, is the most critical because it really feeds into how you lead. I’ve completely reversed my leadership style—the result is so much richer and more powerful when you lead from behind and lead with strength. . Studying in tandem with working, whilst challenging, gave me the perfect platform to directly apply learning concepts into my business environment, the competitive landscape, and the real-estate industry as a whole. When I started the program, I was very happy in my corporate role. But my courage and aspirations grew to the point that I took on a whole new direction. Having my career coach, Joanna, as a sounding board allowed me to really be strategic and get to know myself. She coached me thro ugh all the interviews, the research, and the questions. It went in parallel with what I was doing academically and after six months everything just clicked. . I went into the EMBA knowing I had nothing to lose and I’ve come out with everything. Great strength, global friends, amazing learning, mentors from professors, a job I love, and the knowledge that I can set my mind to achieve anything and with the right support and resources I’ll get there.† .

I knew that I’d have likely stayed in my neighborhood for years to come if I didn’t take this opportunity. I’d not lived or studied outside of the U.S. before. So I left my job as a global strategist at an advertising agency and moved halfway around the world. I’ve come back a more culturally aware, well-versed person. I’ve realized that everything is a learning experience and an opportunity for growth. Ill definitely carry this mindset with me into the future. Technology and social media allow us to be different people in several places at once. Im excited to see how I can establish myself in whatever city Ill be lucky enough to call home and still maintain deep connections with people all over the world. I’m inspired by my classmates every day. Hearing some of their life stories and how getting this degree fits into their greater mission has been very humbling. My biggest challenge has been finding the ‘right’ path for me. There have been rooms Ive felt like I shouldnt be in, but now Im proud to feel as though I truly belong, wherever I am.† .
