Simone Groeneveld, Director of Solutions at ManPower Group, and Jacob Bonk, Recruitment Director for L’Oreal China, were the guest speakers and local job seekers also joined to give their perspective. For our students, it offered a great insider view on how the job market operates in China, as well as an opportunity to network with recruiters and hiring managers in the region.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u2018The Economist Series\u2019 addresses global economic trends <\/b><\/p>\n Next, Hult Shanghai kicked off \u2018The Economist Series\u2019.
