TESTIMONIAL

Having spoken with them at the Financial & Consulting Career Fair, I was very interested in the prospect of such an international career and submitted my CV. Following several interviews via Skype, I received the exciting offer to move to the UAE. Expectations are high, but I feel my education at Vlerick more than adequately prepared me.”
