The Stockholm School of Economics is a private business school located in Stockholm, the capital of
Sweden. SSE has been creating opportunities for its graduates for over 100 years.
Welcome to Episode 7: MSC Careers.
Hi, friends of SSE. My name is Cindy, I'm from Beijing, China now am a master's student of
economics at SSE.
One of the reasons that I chose SSE is the amazing career relationships.
I just had my breakfast at a company event and now I am on
my way to another company event for lunch.
SSE offers five different master programs, all taught in English, with a
diverse set of students from all over the world.
Students can start their careers in the public or the private sectors.
Some common careers for graduates are consultancies investment banking, various management
positions at international organizations such as the UN, World Bank or the
IMF, as well as government and foreign services such as embassies and consultants
abroad. Also, if you are passionate about starting your own business SSE
Business Lab is a great place for all entrepreneurs.
A lunch lecture is going to begin again and my lunchboxes, this is
my favorite part the lunch. Thanks to the
Business Committee for providing us students with so many lunch lectures.
You can also get company-specific insights and free lunch.
Hello, friends. Now we are at the master club and we have Linnea here with us
Please introduce yourself.
Mm hmm.
I'm Linnea. I'm a first year master's student here at SSE.
I study finance and yes, I'm part of Master Club and Master Club is basically
a project that aims to integrate master students at the school.
And we do that by hosting parties and other sorts of activities.
So, yeah, that's really fun.
Oh yeah. Well, what job opportunities to master students can get?
A lot.
We have career fairs, I think three of them, and also
also a mentorship program which you can sign up to if you want to.
And as a finance student, you get assigned a coach, which is also very valuable.
Oh, that's pretty nice.
And why do you plan to do in the future?
I don't know. I have been working at Handelsbanken for a few years, which
has been fun, but I am really open to, you know, explore different options,
and that is why I really enjoy working on the career fairs.
And also, I actually had my first coach meeting yesterday and that was, yeah, that
was really interesting.
I'm I was blown away by how he could help, and he also helped me like, look at my
CV and stuff like that.
So it's really nice to have.
Yeah. And I am also in the mentorship program and I will meet my mentor in the future,
and I'm very excited for that.
Have you been assigned a mentor? Not yet
But I wrote my proposals and my brief introduction about myself and what
I want to do in the future.
Yes. What do you want to do in the future?
Actually, my major is economics but
I want to find a job in the creative industry, so I need a mentor
to tell me what's really creative industries about and what
job opportunities can I find
Yes. Interesting.
I really want to show you more about this, but
I really do need to get back to my studies, so thank you for watching this episode
and hopefully, you got some insights about the career opportunities for Master's students at SSE.
