Top-students chosen to spend a day with a leading CEO in Belgium in 2018

On Tuesday 6th February, the Odgers Berndtson Brussels partners selected the 5 finalists who will spend a day with 5 top-CEOs in Belgium in the next weeks.

At the firm’s office, the semi-finalists competed for this top honour in several exercises: creative personal introductions, case study in groups of 3 - with individual presentations to the Odgers Berndtson partners, speed interviews and a Hogan personality test. The Odgers Berndtson partners then had the (extremely) tough job of selecting the final five - the overall level was outstanding and congratulations to all who participated.

This was the final step in a rigorous selection process that started last October when Odgers Berndtson in partnership with Solvay Brussels School of Economics & Management, invited Master-2 students to participate. All Odgers Berndtson partners - who specialize in recruitment at executive level - are highly impressed by the outstanding quality and the international profile of the chosen students.

This is the fourth year of this unique event which is also organised by other Odgers Berndtson offices around the world. The 5 CEOs will receive the chosen students later in February and March and special programmes are being organised to ensure the day is fulfilling and enriching, for both the CEO and the student.
