speaking, I think that at least for the first year is a very good idea to live
close to the campus. This will allow you to minimize transportation time,
maximize the time you spent at school studying or enjoying your time with your
associations. This will also allow you to build a stronger network with your
peers. In addition, Cergy is cheaper than Paris, very well connected (25
minutes to La Defense et 35 for Paris city center) and with much more green
areas than Paris.

of housing subsidy called CAF. If you subscribe to CAF, you will receive every
month a cash transfer (on average 100/200 euros) that will allow you to lower
the real cost of housing. In order to gain time, you should apply to CAF as
soon as you pick up your keys and <a href="http://www.essec.edu/en/pages/about-essec/housing/housing-subsidies/" target="_blank"><span class="Link">here</span></a> you will find more useful information.</span></div>

nights to allow you to better know which activities ESSEC students are carrying
on. However, if you want to join an association you will have to do an
interview, usually in September, and it is a good idea to decide what you want
to join well in advance. You will find all the associations at this <a href="https://www.bde-essec-interasso.com/membres/" target="_blank"><span class="Link">link</span></a>.
Take into consideration that this page is work in progress and for now just a
list. Furthermore, associations typically have their own website you can check.
Also, if you want to join a French association learning the rudiments of French
will definitely help! </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">Let’s be honest. Boarding a plane,
travelling thousands of kilometres to finally land in Paris to join the
Masters in Management Grande Ecole at ESSEC is not an easy ride. It involves
some inherent form of courage, a great curriculum and definitely a clear
willingness to improve your future in every possible way. It means being aware
that it is finally time to think big and walk the talk.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">This is why, when you finally board that
plane holding your admission letter in one hand and the heavy luggage in the
other, you may be tempted to think that it is finally done.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB">Everything has been handled with great
care. There is a flat waiting for you close to ESSEC, VISA and passports ready
to be stamped and, finally, you have clothes for every season.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">But there is something you forgot to pack:
a basic knowledge of the French language.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">You are not convinced? Let me better
explain. ESSEC is an International Business School, meaning that your future
studies will be entirely in English. On the campus everyone speaks English. You
can write emails and communicate with people expecting a fluent level of English
from their side. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">But outside ESSEC you will not always find
people speaking fluently English. This is particularly true if you want to
experience the real culture of France and not only the most famous touristic
spots in Paris.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">So, what do we do now? Let’s assume we can
go back in time and let’s check out our options to learn some basic French
before landing at Charles de Gaulle Airport. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<h1>
<span lang="EN-GB">Duolingo</span></h1>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHc7M_cA37DnupGhf3NV4OmhfrYmjLOO_B0Ap6nBQ_yfYkfR-YeFexKSqToJpc3wuJY4jMQb865-0QQZsdai6i4dE5OVAV3VL5ZiFcDfpNEELsznrVyZLoe15U8DRca1a5PtZ1ykDLoXs/s1600/frenchcrazy.com-2.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="1600" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHc7M_cA37DnupGhf3NV4OmhfrYmjLOO_B0Ap6nBQ_yfYkfR-YeFexKSqToJpc3wuJY4jMQb865-0QQZsdai6i4dE5OVAV3VL5ZiFcDfpNEELsznrVyZLoe15U8DRca1a5PtZ1ykDLoXs/s400/frenchcrazy.com-2.png" width="400" /></a><span lang="EN-GB">If you want to maximize the ROI and have
fun during the process the app Duolingo is the perfect choice for you. It is
divided in levels, and it focusses on lexicon and basic grammar, but also on pronunciation.
You can use it wherever you want, and you can even compete with your friends.
It helped me a lot during my first weeks in Paris.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<h1>
<span lang="EN-GB">SLOWLY</span></h1>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">When I was studying English, I remember that
my teacher suggested having a “pen pal” as a mean to learn faster. Thanks to
the app Slowly, you can have many French pen pals matched to your interests
(art, science, culture) and practice written French. Your “message in the
bottle” will take the same amount of time that it normally takes to physically
go from your country to France and this is done to incentivize users to write long,
well-written and interesting messages.</span></div>
<h1>
<span lang="EN-GB">French Cinema</span></h1>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">According to research on neurosciences
& learning behaviours, you learn faster when you associate a word in a new
language to an image or an emotion instead that just to its translation in your
own native language. Cinema is the perfect way to do so, and in addition French
cinema is full of interesting directors and genres (who said la Nouvelle Vague?).
To start, try this <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a href="https://www.timeout.com/paris/en/film/best-french-movies" target="_blank">list</a></span>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">If you have time and if you want to start
your experience at ESSEC in the best possible way, one of the options could be
to follow some class at Alliance Française. There are “ateliers” for every
level of language and for every topic like grammar, oral speaking, listening…
If you live in a big town, you can probably find an Alliance Française near-by.
If you are far from an Alliance Française, you can always follow their <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a href="https://www.my-mooc.com/fr/conceptor/Alliance%20fran%C3%A7aise%20Paris%20Ile-de-France/" target="_blank">onlinefree MOOCs</a>.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">No need to exaggerate and over-study. After
all, the best teacher is real life. When you will arrive in Paris, your level
of French will definitely improve much faster. Of course, the best way of
learning French is by talking with French people, exploring the country and its
history and experiencing the Parisian life and everything it can offers. I call
this last technique “learn by living”!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We have all experienced the hurdle of being in a huge class, with hundreds of fellow students, trying to capture the very top-down key learnings of a far-away professor speaking about entrepreneurship and new frontiers. We all know the sound of all the scratching pens copying some confused and over-loaded slides on a confused and overloaded paper notebook. This basic pedagogy did not substantially change for hundreds of years since the first modern universities popped out in the world around the 11th Century AD. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Then, at some point in the 20th Century, someone in the US came out with a revolutionary idea: the modern MBA. The idea behind every MBA is to offer a course strongly based on case studies and experiential learning. </span><span style="font-size: large;">In order to do that, MBAs typically relies on small classes to foster participation and discussion and on much teamwork to « <i>learn by doing</i> ». <br /><br />This MBA-approach was then adopted in all the modern business schools, like ESSEC, in many of their programs like, for example, the flagship <b>Masters In Management</b>. But how to further develop the 21st Century pedagogy to equip the leaders of tomorrow with the necessary skills to succeed?<br /><br />Someone who spends a good amount of his free time to read literature and specialized press on managerial topics will surely come across, from time to time, with the word <b>Agile</b>. The <b>Agile </b>approach was originally developed to revolutionize project management for software development. The original idea behind <b>Agile</b> is that software development is often unpredictable and that therefore this unpredictability has to be tackled thanks to incremental, iterative work sequences and transversal problem-solving.<br /><br />After some time from the invention of this revolutionary </span><span style="font-size: large;">approach, it turned out that the modern macro-environment, </span><span style="font-size: large;">including <b>customer shifts, climate change and demographics trends </b>are much more unpredictable than software. </span><br />
<br />

Some business schools took up the torch of this pedagogical revolution and started to propose Agile curriculums during their programs. How? <br /><br />Take the flagship <b>Masters in Management at ESSEC</b>. Every trimester, you have to face a choice: exchange, professional experience or courses. Let’s say that you pick courses. What happens in almost every university in the world is that the university will choice the courses you have to follow and if you are lucky enough you will be able to choose a couple of extra classes during a 2-years program. <i>This is not how Agile works</i>. Let’s come back at ESSEC. One month before the trimester starts, you will be able to choose up to 7 courses from more than 200+ classes covering everything from finance, ethics, marketing to strategy. This unlimited freedom to shape your curriculum will allow you to develop your knowledge dynamically depending, for example, on which internship you want to do first or on which project you are working on (you can find the <a href="http://www.essec.edu/media/course_catalog_2018_2019.pdf" target="_blank">full list of courses here</a>).</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Let’s say you want to go in exchange. You have 10 double degrees all around the world. You have ESSEC Singapore and ESSEC Rabat with their exclusive paths and programs. You have hundreds of exchange destinations both at MBA and MSC level. Do you want to do all those things? It turns out that you can! <br /><br />Finally, what if you chose professional experience? Being on the top business school in the world will allow you to find great internships both in Europe and outside. You will be able to do an apprenticeship if you prefer to have a more flexible schedule, studying 6 months and working for the rest of the year. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br />An MiM graduate degree will offer you a wealth of advantages. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>Getting a high salary after graduation, landing a management position, or even becoming your own boss are just a few other advantages.</b><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></span><br />
<br />

And this context will accentuate your business management capabilities. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Finally, you gain access to the <b>extensive alumni network of that particular MiM programme. </b>Your connections will give you a great overview of the business world.

The average wage after three years for ESSEC students (according to the Financial Times Ranking) was <b>93’461$ in 2018</b>, growing faster on a year to year basis.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><b>3.

However, almost everyone asks: “<i>How is the student life at ESSEC?</i>”. <br /><br />I love to answer to this question, mainly because for me student life at ESSEC was <b>something totally new</b> compared to my previous university. When I arrived at ESSEC, I started to wonder how incredible is that students are so involved in initiatives that are not necessarily linked with their professional career or with their academic path. <b>Associations at ESSEC are a big part of the whole experience</b> and they are a great way to learn, to meet new people and, of course, to have fun. There are many associations both in ESSEC Paris and in ESSEC Singapore.<br /><br />Associations at ESSEC can be divided in 5 big groups: Humanitarian Associations, Professional Associations, Sport Associations, Cultural Associations and Free-time Associations. Globally, there are more than 100 associations at ESSEC and I guess it will be a real challenge to talk of all of them in just an article. This is why, in the next months, I will write specific articles on the best associations of those 5 groups.</span><br />

Delta ESSEC is a humanitarian association that collaborate with a South African NGO, called <i>Swa Vana</i> (“<i>For the children</i>”), to promote access to education and basic care for the children of a rural community in South Africa. Swa Vana is a multi-purpose centre in Huntington, 500km East of Johannesburg, where children come after school to play, eat something and learn.<br /> </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">This is why we also worked for 5 weeks in the village <b>high school </b>and<b> primary school</b>, teaching <i>Mathematics</i> and <i>English</i> in buildings that were mere containers with more than 40 children for class.

Finally, we partnered with a local entrepreneur <b>to build a dormitory</b> part of a learning centre for children with handicaps. The families of those children cannot afford the cost of sending them to special schools. For this reason the children have no opportunity to learn and they are marginalized by society. By building this facility, we granted access to basic education to<b> 14 children with disabilities</b>. Of course, building a 100 square meters structure in just 4 weeks was definitely a crazy project... but luckily, we were able to make it thanks to the collaboration of local workers and building experts!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b> </b><span style="font-size: large;">We
live in a world where complexity and change constantly shift our
objectives and finalities. Many “modern” companies still rely on teams
that are not diverse at all to face those new challenges. <a href="https://hbr.org/2018/01/how-and-where-diversity-drives-financial-performance">Research</a> and
experience, together with the opinion of the <a href="https://about.bankofamerica.com/en-us/what-guides-us/diversity-and-inclusion.html">biggest banks</a> and
<a href="https://www.bcg.com/publications/2018/how-diverse-leadership-teams-boost-innovation.aspx">consulting firms</a>, suggest that this wishful thinking is a huge strategic
error. But managing diversity requires a strong leadership and a clear
vision of the future. Thus, how can the manager of tomorrow develop
those essential skills? The ESSEC Leadership and Diversity Chair in
partnership with L’Oréal is the answer to this challenge. Here you will
find 5 reasons to be part of this highly selective program:</span></span><br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">You will
learn how to work with people from all over the world and you will learn
how important is to build an inclusive culture in modern companies. </span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">You will develop essential management skills like negotiation and
mediation. In addition to this, you will also learn how to deliver and perform an
engaging public speech. And in order to do so, you will benefit directly
from the know-how of L’Oréal that, according to many <a href="https://mediaroom.loreal.com/en/pioneer-in-gender-equality-loreal-ranked-the-top-gender-balanced-company-in-europe-by-equileap/">rankings</a>, is one of
the most diverse, ethical (and successful) companies in the world. </span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">You will learn how to listen, value and summarize the different points
of view of a flexible team and you will feel empowered by the freedom to
propose and lead new successful projects.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghEhQmc4sIVAIa-CPALQjCdWCTZvwZ-zq_AaWs2_-OSoOyr-MHBwOFs_PH1V3EeJV2zuStpbgNv5D9QC-rplrthPiNZIqaze6qOEnQ3MAmszR87gC4t4w0exXkTEXkfHQPgqnQXAxxSLo/s1600/brainstorming-business-plan-close-up-908295.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="975" data-original-width="1600" height="241" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghEhQmc4sIVAIa-CPALQjCdWCTZvwZ-zq_AaWs2_-OSoOyr-MHBwOFs_PH1V3EeJV2zuStpbgNv5D9QC-rplrthPiNZIqaze6qOEnQ3MAmszR87gC4t4w0exXkTEXkfHQPgqnQXAxxSLo/s400/brainstorming-business-plan-close-up-908295.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
By doing so, you will develop
great content and a strategy that will inspire change in people all over
the world. You will have to use your brainstorming and problem-solving
skills to understand our market and the best strategy to reach our
objectives. </span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">You will travel with your engaged team in another
country for the annual Chair trip and you will learn from diversity’s
champions during companies’ visits.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">You will have an unique
opportunity to participate to the One Young World, the most important
forum for young leaders in the world.</span></span></li>

is still a LOT of time. Why is it then that it often seems like the day ran by
in a second and we didn’t get anything done?! </span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Time management</i> is a really important skill and most job
descriptions show requirements such as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">well-organized,
precision, multitasking, able to work under pressure</i> (among various other
superpowers) so, how is it possible to practice these mysterious abilities in
the everyday life to get ready for the real game? How can one organize their
time? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"><b>Being organized leads to have
a better perspective not only of what needs to be done when and how, but also
provides a sense of priority to our duties and most importantly, prevents us
from wasting time.</b></span></span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> In fact, there is nothing more precious than time and when
beginning a new task, it is much more efficient to spend a couple of minutes
figuring out what are the steps to be followed and the possible options, than
wasting an hour trying to tackle the issue switching from one perspective to
another. So in the end being organized translates also in being more effective
in completing a task. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Below are 3 golden tips to help disorganized but
motivated people achieving the organizational nirvana.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times";"><b><i><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;">#1: Write
things down</span></i></b></span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Post-its, to-do lists,
calendar apps, more traditional pen and paper, color codes. Anything, literally
anything will do, as long as there is commitment and precision on one’s side.
Although some of these methods might seem a bit old-school and boring, there is
a recent trend, a bit hipster-ish and very instagrammable, to help boost one’s
productivity and organization: the Bullet Journal. </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">A bullet journal is nothing
else than an <u>empty</u> notebook that one can fill on a daily basis in with
the to-dos, rendez-vous, and the likes that have to be ticked once completed
(spoiler alert: leaving to-dos non-ticked can be very annoying). What makes it
cooler than a regular calendar (and more instagrammable) is that being its
pages completely white, it is highly customizable and thus it is up to the
owner to organize, decorate and make colourful. </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">YouTube and Pinterest are full
of inspirational material about how to structure it and how to doodle it
(according to seasons and moods) and of useful tips about what kind of charts
one could use. For example, a person who is on a training program might want to
measure their progress and thus will be able to create a personalized tracking
chart to visualize it. </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">This bullet journal has three main benefits: i) helps
not to forget about deadlines and duties, ii) it has a “chromotherapy” effect,
as the decorating and doodling part helps to relax and be creative for a little
while, iii) it can act as motivation thanks to the possibility of tracing one’s
behaviour and progress over time. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">P.S.: in extreme cases people
use it to plan their daily meals, so they don’t waste time at the supermarket
or deciding what to cook. </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "wingdings"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-ascii-font-family: Times; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: Times; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;"><span style="mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<h3>
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"><b>#2:
Keep yourself busy</b></span></span></i></h3>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">The saying goes “If you want
something done, ask a busy person”, implying that busier people are more likely
to carry out unexpected duties. Since student life is so beautiful and
professors often come up with last minute extra credit assignments that
overworked students have to squeeze in between an essay, a sad sandwich (full
of butter because hey, it’s France) and other uncountable group projects (all
this without skipping the association’s meeting or the volleyball training),
being busy might actually be beneficial. </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">In fact, having a tight schedule helps
becoming more prone to take on new projects, and more flexible in switching
from one task to another. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">A little tip to help coping
with these tasks coming up, it is nice to schedule the day in such a way that
one has always more or less one hour “free” (so to say) to dedicate to those
unexpected duties (this helps especially when working in a fast-paced
environment, when this happens almost daily, like in start-ups). <o:p></o:p></span></div>

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">This is probably something we
have heard ever since we were kids: do not postpone to tomorrow what can be
done today. Even more, we should take advantage of today’s spare time to start
working on tomorrow’s homework. This old-but-gold pearl of wisdom is actually
really important even as grown-ups, although it requires a lot of discipline. </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">In fact, when finishing earlier than expected our to-dos or when nothing
unexpected comes up (and we have that extra hour scheduled for unexpected
stuff), one would be tempted to collapse on the couch watching the latest
episode of some Netflix series. </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">However, since we are being trained to become
managers and everybody knows that managers need to have a long-term
perspective, a strong-willed student would just pick one of the to-dos
scheduled for the weekend and do it in that idle time. </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">By taking advantage of
these moments, it is possible to create longer room for leisure later in the
week and thus to watch more of those Netflix episodes at once (this technique
was bingewatcher-tested). </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "wingdings"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-ascii-font-family: Times; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: Times; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;"><span style="mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 15.6pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">P.S. Also, this will come in
handy especially during an internship, as completing a task a day or two before
the deadline might actually make the difference between a farewell with a pat
on the shoulder at the end of the contract and an enthusiastic hiring proposal.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"><b>Being a student can be tough,
but with a few tricks it can actually get way easier!</b></span></span></h3>

plenty of cool opportunities to learn a new culture and language. Despite the
fact that most universities offer lectures in English, it’s a good idea to step
out of your comfort zone and get to know the basics of the local language. If
you are planning to stay abroad for work, it is even more important to do so.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">In some places, like the Netherlands or Germany, one
can survive for longer periods with the aid of English only; in France this is
not the case. Here, everyday activities such as grocery shopping or buying a
transport card might become quite challenging, let alone finding an internship.
In fact, one thing that is silently known but not openly admitted is the
difficulty of finding a job in France without being fluent in French. Don’t get
me wrong, there are plenty of companies that are willing to close an eye on
this if the candidate’s profile is well fitting, but one should at least be
able to interact with co-workers in their native language.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Therefore, for the sake of a smoother everyday life
but also for the pursuit of one’s career, it is recommended to learn the basics
of the French language before arriving to France. Although it might be hard to
squeeze in French classes while preparing for the GMAT, applying to different
master’s degrees, writing a bachelor thesis or completing an internship, it
would be a small sacrifice that will yield results later on. Below are a few
tips (that can be followed anywhere, at any time) to learn the language in an
effective way.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">It is true that one is a click away from changing the
language settings on Netflix or from downloading a movie in another language, but
one can use the study of a foreign language as an excuse to get acquainted with
a completely new cinematographic tradition. Luckily, French cinema produced some
masterpieces, ranging from the classic </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Amélie</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">
to the success of </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Intouchables</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">.
However, for those who enjoy the lightness of series, </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Plus Belle la Vie</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"> and </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Caméra
Café</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"> should do the trick. Watching a movie in French with French subtitles
can actually help the ear get used to the new words while training the eye to
their spelling.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><b><br /></b></span></i></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Another extremely useful activity is to imagine an
everyday situation, such as visiting a provider to get a </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">forfeit and then</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"> translate the
imaginary conversation on paper. This might sound weird to do, but it is
actually very effective as it prepares to react to ordinary events without
having the need to use the sign language.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Needless to say, feeling comfortable having a
conversation in a foreign language is the hardest part of the whole process and
yet probably the most crucial one, especially if the goal is to ace the
interview and get the job. And here is where the greatness of social media
comes in: believe it or not, people of any nationality living abroad will have
a Facebook group in which they share experiences and tips. All one needs to do
is to look for it (for example “Les françaises à Berlin/New York/Katmandu”) and
share a post asking if anyone is willing to spend some time weekly over a
coffee to chat in French. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Most likely, those who come forward are glad to meet
new people and to share their culture and in the best case scenario, they will
be willing to check your homework or recommend you books and movies. This is
not only much cheaper and more flexible than enrolling in a traditional
language course, but also achievements will come more quickly and there’s the
chance of making a new friend.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">All these are just a few of the many ways in which one
can learn a new language; however there are some key ingredients to a
successful approach: commitment and motivation. They prevent from constantly
postponing and from giving up once the first difficulties arise (rest assured,
they will). One just needs to drop the excuses, the “I’m not a language person”
idea and use downtimes fruitfully. By regularly practicing French when
commuting on public transport, while waiting for the nail polish to dry or even
during your workout routine, results will come sooner than expected.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 10pt;">It is no secret that the City of Lights can have no mercy on tight knit
wallets, but what most people ignore is that living in Paris as a student
doesn’t necessarily mean to be living in a Dickensian novel. In fact, one can
enjoy (almost) all of the pleasures the city has to offer by making some clever
research and by asking around. Since you are here, below are some friendly tips
to be Paris savvy when your wallet is tight.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">There’s no better way to get to know a city than
walking around and getting lost in its streets, discovering the little things
that make it unique. But getting lost might not be really fun, especially if
you’re not quite familiar with the place and don’t speak the local language. So
why not getting acquainted with the surroundings little by little by
participating to a guided tour? Generally, this kind of activity can be quite
pricy, but you are smart and Google is your second best friend so it won’t take
you long to find websites such as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Sandeman’s</i>
and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Discover Walks</i>! These sites
propose (short) free guided tours around different areas of the city. So now
you don’t have any excuses, grab your tennis shoes and camera and go explore!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

cliché to check off your bucket list than enjoying a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpe</i> to go
while exploring the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">quartier latin</i>?
If you’d like to tick this point off your bucket list, then you should definitely
try out <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Au petit Grec</i>, a small <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêperie</i> that will give you a taste of
how serious are French people when it comes to food. Sweet or savoury, a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpe</i> is always the perfect snack
however when the big hunger strikes, you should definitely go for a full meal
and what is better than an </span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">entrecôte</span></i><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> accompanied by a glass of

oh-so-French allure is probably the first place you should pay a visit to for
lunch. If you are one those daring and curious people (as I think you are),
then you should definitely give a chance to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">L’as
du fallafel</i> (yes, with double “l”) and to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Le Comptoir Général</i>. The first one might look like just the typical
döner place, but don’t judge a book from its cover, the menu goes well beyond
the usual falafels and will take your senses straight to the Middle East.
Whereas the second option has an African-style atmosphere which is a very
peculiar and cool not only to have a meal or a drink, but also to dance and
assist to all kinds of performances. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

day around Paris in a very French way is a must: enjoying both an <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">apéro</i> and sunset on the Seine at <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Barapapa</i>, a wonderful French brasserie.
Although the scenario might seem typically Parisian, this lovely bar will
surprise you since you can pair your aperitif up with delicious Italian pizza
or amazing Chinese dumplings and play table tennis afterwards. Another
wallet-friendly destination for drinks (and food) is the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Grand Train</i>, which is more of an urban-chic place. As the name may
suggest, the place is literally on the railway and hosts a variety of
train-themed activities: bars, restaurants, expositions etc. So, if you are
always looking for original places or love trains at least half as much as
Sheldon does, then believe me, it will become one of your favourites!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

place is literally situated in the beauty of the city from the club’s terrace
(of course the view is on the Seine). The good vibes of the place will
literally take over and make you stay until sunrise. A completely different
place to try out is the club <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Au</i> <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Bonheur des Dames </i>(the ladies’
happiness, <u>literally</u>). The music and the setting might be a bit rudimentary,
but fear not - on Thursdays, there’s a special treatment reserved to the ladies

until 11 pm! What a slam dunk for students! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Commitment, scheduling, flexibility, coordination,
willpower…No, this is not about how to successfully engage in a fitness plan at
the local gym (who needs a bikini body when there’s a summer internship coming
up?!), but about an emerging phenomenon among millennials: long-distance
relationships, or LDR’s for short.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"><br /></span></div>

terribly difficult thing to endure. Other than the friend zone, the reality of
love over long distance lapses of time and space is either too much studying or
work. These pesty situations can come in between two lovebirds, frequently
students, who always come up with the excuse ‘it’s not you baby, it’s me’.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">However, lovebirds
can sing their song longer: thanks to lower cost travel, increased access to
study abroad programs and the ubiquitous presence of digital communication
devices, LDR’s popularity is on the rise.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Despite being frowned
upon, LDR relationships are being upheld more and more by millennials. Because
of ESSEC’s international atmosphere, students in this kind of relationship are
not at all rare; it’s becoming less taboo to choose between academia and one’s
college sweetheart. After investigating this subject with some ESSEC students
who are in this situation, we actually found out that LDR’s have several
benefits.</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"> </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Distance prevents
from sharing everyday moments of daily life, true – but, according to our chats
with students on campus, this type of relationship is a way to learn to
appreciate one’s other half. When reunited, this happy moment will add more
value to the relationship that scratches way past the superficial layer of
‘baby talk’. This, together with the time spent apart, makes that sweet
honeymoon phase last up to two whole years, much longer than for a regular
couple!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Speaking about added
value, all interviewed students agreed on the fact that LRD’s teach important
lessons of patience, dialogue and trust. Couples in LRD’s talk a LOT over the
phone and good old Skype and thus tend to fight much less over silly arguments
such as who did the dishes the other night. This naturally improves trust and
proves as a great psychological training for people to trust their partner
wholeheartedly.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">As mentioned above, LDRs need frequent and regular
communication, pretty much like flowers need water. Sometimes, it can take a
lot of effort for busy bees to build and stick to a schedule, especially when
there are different time zones dividing Romeo and Juliet.</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"> However, students told us that
committing to a daily call, no matter what the day looks like, helps the couple
feel more involved in each other’s lives, even in the smallest of things, thus
improving reciprocal commitment.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Time” & Friends</b></span></span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Students pointed out
to us that people in an LDR can actually afford the luxury of enjoying ‘me
time’, which is especially precious for those introverts in need of being
alone. This gives the benefit of working on friendships outside of the
relationship, without having to choose fun Friday night’s out with friends or a
candlelight dinner with that special someone. This is not what comes to mind
first when thinking about LDR’s, but couples actually feel more liberated and
can enjoy their independent activities, such as yoga or trivia night.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">For this reason, one should always keep close those friends
who are on an LDR, as they are not that kind of friend who disappears once in a
relationship but will always have time to spend with their besties.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-outline-level: 1;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Students agreed that
being able to take multiple short holidays to visit each other without paying
those absurd AirB&B prices is perhaps the coolest advantage. The
significant other’s place of residence becomes like a second home. This makes
it way easier to get through a tough week since there is always that
destination to look forward to as a mini weekend getaway.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-outline-level: 1;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">So, here’s the deal - </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 15.6pt;">Who said that one has to choose between academic and
love life? Being in an LDR can actually be cool. Focusing more on the pros
rather than just seeing the cons and listening to depressing love songs can
foster personal growth and make the situation more enjoyable. They say that
distance is like a wind to the candle of relationship: it can either extinguish
the spark or strengthen the flame and make it burn brighter. So, despite the
odds, never let those miles blow too hard on the candle, but instead find
reasons to keep it alive.</span></div>

canteen), located next to the cafeteria and therefore also the closest and most
comfortable option. This is especially convenient during days when the lunch
break is squeezed in between two classes. One would think that in 2017 university
canteens would have mastered the art of providing tasty meals to students, but
unfortunately this is not the case. I will soon be clear that finding a meal
that is not soaked in butter, overcooked, or accompanied by some mysterious
sauce is a rare event but hey, somethings got to give!</span></div>

you might want to try out the canteen upstairs. Be warned though, higher
quality means higher price, and the seats are reserved to professors and MBA
students by right of seniority.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">After
getting acquainted with the surroundings, you will find out that in the park
behind ESSEC there is the </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">Restaurant
Universitaire</i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;"> (or Resto-U). Despite its name, it is a dark and gloomy canteen
offering student-ish meal deals: you can purchase a full meal, from appetizer
to dessert, for the bargain price of 3.25! After a few meals here, you will
understand that being hungry is pretty much like being in love: exterior
appearance is not that important after all.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">In the era
of Pinterest and Tasty, being creative in the kitchen has never been so easy.
So why not investing a couple of minutes in chopping and mixing some fresh
ingredients at home so to have a perfectly instagrammable takeaway lunch for
the next day?! The greedy looks of your friends will make your day!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">When
sitting in the cafeteria, you will also see several people carrying a red or a
brown paper bag and you will also notice that those bags smell reeeeeeally good.
In fact, right across ESSEC’s main entrance, there is </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">Pomme de Pain</i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;"> (literally the </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">“Apple
of Bread”</i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">) and a little further you can find </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">Cezam</i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;"> (literally meaning the ‘brown bag’). These two heavenly
places are best friends to hungry students. The first one offers a variety of
pretty-much-healthy sandwiches and tempting </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">viennoiseries</i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">
to be packed in a red paper bag to go. The latter one instead is more like a
yummy fast food and believe me, you might want to keep it for those afternoons
in which you can afford to be sleepy.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">When you’ll
feel brave enough to go even further and will have a long lunch break, you can
explore the little brasseries and cafés located in and around the shopping mall
</span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">“Les Trois Fontaines”</i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">. Thai, French,
Italian, and many more types of different cuisines can be discovered in these
hidden places, you just need to look for them. The walking distance (a few
hundred meters) might discourage the laziest students on campus, but we all
know that it is important to include some physical activity in our daily
routine, so why not?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">Finally, before
going back to studying, you should never forget to conclude your meal with a
coffee and something sweet from the </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">DeliCafé</i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 8.5pt;">,
the cafeteria: after all this food you wouldn’t want to fall asleep in the
middle of a lecture, would you?</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Welcome back for the second part of our blog post series, “Housing in Paris”. This post is targeted at ESSEC students that plan to live the true Parisian life in the heart of the city. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Living in central Paris has many advantages. You will be close to the main Parisian attractions such as the Louvre, Champs Élysées and the Tour Eiffel, but that’s not it! You will have the chance to dive directly into the French culture by discovering the different sides of the City of Lights.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Moreover, you will have the opportunity to run along the River Seine and to take an apéro with your friends in Le Marais, enjoy an art exhibition at the Grand Palais and try famous French pastries at the patisserie at the corner of the Rue.</div>
<br />
<b>STEP 1: What do you need?</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
First of all, you need to know that most of the time, you will need to provide the agency or the landlord with a series of documents that constitute your dossier (file). These documents are the following:</div>
<ul>
<li> ID </li>
<li> Enrolment Certificate at your school </li>
<li> ID of your guarantor </li>
<li> Payrolls of your guarantor </li>
<li> Convention de Stage or last 3 payrolls</li>
</ul>
<div>
<br /></div>
<b>STEP 2: Which area? </b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The second step is starting to check out apartments online, based on your preferences. Here, you need to be aware that Paris has 20 districts (arrondissements) that are organized in a snail-like formation, the 1st arrondissement being the center of the city (near the Louvre) and the others are around it. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The very heart of Paris includes arrondissements 1 to 9 and arrondissements 10 to 20 form the second ring. </div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small; text-align: start;">Rue Montorgueil, Paris </span></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Each arrondissement has its own personality: the Latin Quarter (5th) is a charming, lively arrondissement that is quite expensive. The 3rd arrondissement (Le Marais) is a trendy and touristy area, with excellent restaurants and shops. Bastille (11th) is a residential area, which is also popular for its nightlife.

Studying at ESSEC means taking the RER A to reach Cergy. The RER A can be taken at the following stations: La Defense, Charles de Gaulle Etoile (8th), Auber (9th), Chatelet Les Halles (1st), and Nation (11th). <a href="https://www.ratp.fr/en/plans-lignes/rer/a" target="_blank">Click here</a> to view the map of the RER A. It's a wise choice to find a flat near one of these stops, or at least near a subway stop that will allow you to reach one of these stations quickly. </div>

GOOD TO KNOW:<br />
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Guarantors: Some landlords would prefer you having a French guarantor, that is a relative of yours that lives in France and that can guarantee your lease. Some agencies and landlord don’t require the guarantor to be French.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Housing Subsidy: If you are a student and below 26 years old, you are most likely entitled to have a housing subsidy from the French state (CAF - Caisse des Allocations Familiales). The amount you get depends on the location of your flat, the size and the rent. Normally, it’s between 100 to 220€ a month. More info <a href="https://www.caf.fr/" target="_blank">here</a>.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Apartment Visits: Visit before renting! Although Paris is not known for scammers, it is good practice to visit an apartment before signing a contract or paying a deposit. It will allow you to check that the room is decent and that the area is safe and nice!</li>
</ul>

Resumes are the face of what you have got to offer, a big
sign stating your added value and ‘game’ for companies, schools and recruiters.
It is your marketing plan of your unique self, a showcase of all of the
admirable and unique values that your profile consists of. It is like your very

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
ADVERTISE<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is no secret that your resume is your sales pitch, your
marketing strategy, your direct reflection and differentiation of yourself as
opposed to other candidates. Your resume is designed to scream « I am an
awesome candidate, hire me ! », and « I am so much cooler than
the rest of these candidates, pffffff please ». <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"> <i><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">"...you are advertising yourself." </span></i></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
So, know in advance before sitting down and writing your
resume that you are advertising yourself. You need to communicate to the
recruiter that once you are hired, all of the benefits that are presented on
your CV will come pouring down on the company and people will shout hallelujha.
Show that you will and can be successful for the potential job or school that
you are applying to. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
DO THE RESEARCH<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Any good marketing plan is research based, as you will
thoroughly learn here at ESSEC. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Look up and hit the books about the company you are applying
to or the school you wish to attend, and formulate your CV according to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">their </i>interests – this will boost your
visibility, as entities always are eager to interview candidates who have some
kind of connection to the establishment. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Your resume must demonstrate that you
have at least 70% of the entity’s requirements to have a legitimate hope of
landing an interview, with a 30% shot at a silver lining. Stalk the company or
school to know as much as you can about them and what activity they are involved
in currently – the web, social media tracking and networking with people you
know are always great ideas in order for your resume to shine. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Better yet, if you have the luck of
knowing anyone in the place where you want to slam an interview, take them out
for coffee or lunch and ask what they are looking for in a resume. Everyone
likes food and company. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Everyone hates the GMAT. It is a
nail biter. It is long nights with coffee binges. It is a cold, dark place of
studying, with consequential dark, puffy eyes. It is stress and anxiety eating
purges. It is almost as if you are preparing to end a long term relationship.
In a nutshell, it is discomfort, pain, and unecessary drama in your life.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">So, what can we propose you
besides GMAT therapy ? Well, believe it or not, </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><a href="http://www.essec.edu/en/program/business-school/msc-management-grande-ecole/">ESSEC Business School </a>has
developed a 6 month plan to get you on track to own your GMAT and pass it with
flying colors. If you follow our secrets to success, the GMAT will become
nothing but a light breeze – a romantic summer fling that is nightmare free.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
It is always a great idea to book
your exam 6 months ahead – that way, you can develop a schedule for studying,
suit for your attention span. Allow for 2 months between the exam and ESSEC’s
application deadline. If ever you relapse and fail your GMAT exam, no worries –
you can retake it once per month. You can always regain your studying sobriety
chips and redeem your score. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
In order to claim ‘checkmate’, your
strategy for dominating the GMAT needs to be set in stone before taking the
exam. Gather up your chess pieces and ask yourself : How many hours of
studying do I need ? What days of the week can I set aside to study ?
Do I have enough coffee and snacks to get through a study sesh ?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
Create a studying google calendar
to accomodate your personal needs. Use colors, emojis and GIFs when planning –
always incorporate fun into the process, otherwise it will always be monotnous
when hitting the books. This will allow you to personalize your goals and set
objectives with realistic planning, defining a concrete project that has an
expiration date. <o:p></o:p><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
Train, train, train. Do as many
practice exercises as you can. Exploit the GMAT website to your advantage and
immerse yourself in the retired GMAT questions. This way, you know what you are
going to be working with when you confront the GMAT monster. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
P.S : Non-native English
speakers unfortunately might have to start 4-5 months earlier. But no
fear ! The best way to overcome a language barrier, especially if you are
battling the secrets of the English language, is to go to a burger joint,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>have a Starbucks coffee, and sit down during
your GMAT studying breaks and watch the ‘House of Cards’. Never fails. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
You should never be ashamed when
asking for some external help. The GMAT is a nervewracking experience that may
result in PTSD for some, so it is always reassuring when you ask someone who
has taken it before. <o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
Before taking a GMAT class
however, be harsh with yourself and understand where your weaknesses lay. After
this discovery, attend a class - however, we suggest the option to opt for
an individual tutor. Sure, it may be expensive, but hey, you will be sure to
get all the individual lovin’ and attention you need. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
NO MORE EXCUSES. Even if you
forgot to buy the coffee for your studying sessions. Intensify your
personalized studying schedule and do as many exercises as you can.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be your own motivational speaker. Pump up the
colors, highlighters, emojis and GIFs – you’re gonna need ‘em. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
During this time frame, really try
to play out how to finally break up and ‘own’ the GMAT. Stimulate the test
setting itself. Practice with the GMAT mock exams online with the time limit
provided. <o:p></o:p><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: 173.0pt;">
Pick an environment that resembles
what the exam setting will look like, and pour it all out. Familiarizing
yourself with how the exam will be will not only calm the butterflies in your
stomach but will eiliminate nausea and help you get over the exam better than
Taylor Swift songs can. <o:p></o:p></div>

Rest. Take a bath. Go to a spa.
Drink organic tea. Have a dance party. Sing ‘Staying Alive’ by the Bee Gees
with Saturday Night Fever on repeat. Do whatever it takes to relax before your
exam sneaks up on you. <o:p></o:p></div>

These couple of days are meant for
no more stress, with good sleep each night – sleep reduces stress and helps
your brain buddy to remember everything your coffee binges taught you over the

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Let’s face it, writing a letter of motivation isn’t
that rosy after all. In fact, this step of the application process is one of
the most tedious procedures a student must do – all the stress, impatience, and
doubt of self-worth sooner or later will come up and bite. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Since there is no
magic potion for a perfect motivation letter encompassing a students’ worth, it
seems that schools have become pickier and pickier with candidate selection and
students seem to crack under the stress. Luckily, we’ve come up with some great
advice to put some pink glasses on the process and to make it not only
memorable, but one of self-discovery that will help students learn their
motivations, strengths, and amiable characteristics. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">We want to make writing
motivation letters great again and to allow students to foster their confidence
throughout the recruitment and application process at ESSEC for an
understanding of true personal potential. Thus, we present to you the surgical
anatomy of the perfect motivation letter, without the need for a medical
license. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Before opening Microsoft Word, a thorough
research about the school needs to be done. Getting a good idea about the
qualifications, expectations and requirements that ESSEC asks from each
candidate already presents a good idea about what should be included in the
letter. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">ESSEC is a pretty cool school and has an extremely thorough website, so
go all out! Exhibiting research about programs, courses, and tracks showcases
true motivation to the jury, and lets them know that you are truly excited to
join the pioneers at ESSEC. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

to do, especially if you are sitting in front of a blank page on your computer.
In order to seek your goals, motivations, dreams, and future plans that you
want to pursue, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and ask yourself these
questions before writing: <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 72.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">The cover letter is very personal, and you
want to make sure to show who you truly are as an individual. Think of it as
meeting the jury face to face for the first time, except on paper - getting to
know the real you is the most important aspect of this whole process. </span></div>

yourself; even though it’s a cheesy phrase, never forget that you are the only
you, which already makes you unique. So, show them what you’re made of! You can
even light some incense for true self-exploration and listen to some funky yoga
music. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 72.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">In the ESSEC recruitment process, it is
very important for motivation letters to highlight your best features as a
candidate. Perhaps describe an example of a hard time you have overcome, an
international experience, or a personal path that you have taken that has
shaped you and your best characteristics. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 72.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">But, don’t brag – always remember
that actions speak louder than words, and let the actions do the bragging. Make
sure to give anecdotes of a specific experience that is relevant to the ESSEC
program that you are applying to, explaining how these past efforts have made
you a more hard-working and creative individual. </span><br />
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">You will be seen as down to

Proof Read your work of art<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 72.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Remember that you want to be remembered not
only in a unique but also professional way. Check your grammar, prose, and
diction twice. Pretend you are Shakespeare – it sounds absurd, but reading your
letter aloud to yourself helps you notice hidden errors, and helps for flawless
modification. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 72.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left: 72.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Asking around for advice from teachers, friends, and family
members never hurts either, so more eyes can scour for unnecessary commas,
wording, or give you their opinion of your letter’s clarity. Remember:
criticism makes the medicine go down, allowing for a better result. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-ZW" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">So, now that you have the rough anatomy of what ESSEC
is looking for in a motivation letter, go ahead and get writing! Make this
process an art form, moulded from your unique identity – this is the key to
providing a powerful, holistic letter of motivation that will get the jury
talking. You are in the spotlight, so make it glow with your colorful traits -
ESSEC is waiting for you to show them. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">Monday</span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">: The Pioneer’s Club introduced their first
event called «Entrepreneurship: The Untold Story». For this event,
ESSEC invited 4 different entrepreneurs who shared their views and experience:
Markus Gnirck (</span><span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.tryb.asia/capital"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text1;">TrybCapital</span></a></span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">), Anna Vanessa
Haotanto (</span><span style="color: black;"><a href="https://thenewsavvy.com/"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text1;">The
New Savvy</span></a></span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">), Danielle Warner (</span><span style="color: black;"><a href="https://www.expatinsurance.com.sg/"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text1;">ExpatInsurance</span></a></span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">) and Denis
Branthonne (</span><span style="color: black;"><a href="http://novadegroup.com/"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text1;">Novade</span></a></span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">). </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">Danielle Warner</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"> is an active member
in the entrepreneurial community and is driven by and connected to building a
culture of trust. To her, entrepreneurship it’s not a problem of timing but of
taking actions or not. She told us that the primary question that drives her
is: “Why? Why am I doing this? Why should I take that action?”. She then
elaborated that these questions are “never answered by money”. Danielle feels
that entrepreneurship stems from one thing: unrivalled and unwavering
commitment to the answer of your question, “Why?”.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">Denis Branthonne</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">, on the other hand,
explained that he is not a born entrepreneur. He used to work in a big company,
and his start-up is 3 years old. He started up by doing what consumers asked
him to do that he could not do in his previous company. He believes an
entrepreneur is someone with a big self-confidence: he thinks it “helps to be
older” and not being young is definitely not bad.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">Markus Gnirck</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">, instead, is a born
entrepreneur. The start-up he’s involved in now is not his first. He is
convinced that the key is to have passion and to be naive. To him
entrepreneurship is about: “Learning to work with people better than yourself.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">Anna Vanessa Haotanto</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"> is a Singaporean,
half Indonesian woman whose mission can be described as helping women. She had
a long career in finance and it was not easy for her to turn into
entrepreneurship. Anna decided to set up “The New Savvy” to educate women on
being prudent and savvy with their finances. “When I started I only knew money
on the screen,” she said “Every single mistake an entrepreneur can make, I made
them at least twice.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">On Tuesday</span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"> was the evening of

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The second team put together a very interactive evening and the first
ever ESSEC debate in Singapore. They combined talks with innovative
leaders and an eloquence contest between students of all programs. They
explained it as follows: “Whether you prefer the views of Peter Thiel,
Stephen Hawking, George Orwell or Elon Musk, you will have the opportunity to
talk, debate and share your views, your conspiracy fears and your great utopias
about artificial intelligence, fintech, the digital economy, driverless cars,
virtual reality and so on…!”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

the two guests-of-honor <i>Annette Lim</i> from Growth Hacking Asia and <i>Benjamin
Moris</i> from Google. The discussion was handled as a Q&A in a very
innovative way. Indeed, they used the tool </span><span style="color: black;"><a href="https://www.sli.do/"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-themecolor: text1;">Sli.do</span></a></span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"> which allowed the
audience to participate by asking questions anonymously or answering polls in
real time. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The second part of the evening was dedicated to the debate itself. 8
students coming from different ESSEC programs were recruited for this, and were
divided into 2 teams. These two teams were each supporting an answer to the
question, “Do you consider Artificial Intelligence as a threat for
humanity?” It was more casual than the day before, but still very
interesting.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">Wednesday:</span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"> The last event was
“Discover Singapore Through Different Lenses”. This was a more traditional
event in a way that it was a 2-hour series of talks by distinguished guests to
help students understand Singapore through its Religion, Startup, Music,
Theatre, Medicine and food scenes.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;">Ela Kapla Marquezin</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"> explained the dynamics
of the different religions side, the way the different religions cohabit in
harmony in Singapore, and showed students many places to visit that they had
never heard of. <i>Arnaud Bonzom</i> dwelled on the question: “How to get
funded in Singapore?” <i>Siok Khoon</i> presented the changing face of
healthcare. <i>Cuifen Pui</i> shared her thoughts on the changing food
landscape in the city. Marc Goldberg, who has been involved in French theatre
for over twenty years before moving to Singapore in 2013, talked to students
about theatre. ESSEC also invited an exceptionally versatile pianist, <i>Tze
Toh.</i> The Strait Times described him as “an extraordinary musician whose
idiom straddles comfortably between genres of classical, jazz, world and film
music... possesses an original voice”.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The last group of students did something very different and innovative.
They launched the great MYMINIESSEC, which is the first online
collaborative platform dedicated to ESSEC Students in Singapore! They invited
everyone to connect to MYMINIESSEC to learn about student life
in Singapore, travel episodes in Asia and the hottest tips in town. Every
ESSEC student is invited to join as a contributor and can share his or her
experiences. All of this is to help the future students arriving in Singapore.
The platform already has a lot of articles but there is more to come!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

ESSEC is a proud partner of the <a href="https://www.oneyoungworld.com/" target="_blank">One Young World</a>, and the delegates being sent there each year are now proud ambassadors! I stress on the word PROUD for a reason and do read on to understand the reason behind this.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Firstly, let me tell you a little about the One Young World for all those who are not social entrepreneurs or those who do not follow Emma Watson on any of her social handles (Yes, she was there!). The One Young World is a UK-based charity that gathers together the brightest young leaders from around the world, empowering them to make lasting connections to create positive change. They stage an annual Summit each year at exotic venues where the most valuable young talent from global and national companies, NGOs, universities and other forward-thinking organizations are joined by world leaders, acting as the One Young World Counselors. At the Summit, delegates debate, formulate and share innovative solutions for the pressing issues the world faces.</div>

Each year, the chair selects members from a huge pool of applicants to work on their ongoing project with <a href="http://www.loreal.com/" target="_blank">L'Oréal</a> on the subject of diversity at the workplace. At the end of the project period (July), five members of the Chair will be chosen on the basis of their contribution and performance to be the delegates of ESSEC Business School and their respective nations at One Young World.</div>

The Summit in Ottawa this year was spread over three days with highly important topics being discussed such as extremism, climate change, unstable political systems and much more. We not only witnessed world leaders speak, but also delegates, who were selected through an application process, get to go up on stage and voice their thoughts on these matters. They were not speaking in mere abstract terms, they were proposing their concrete ideas with evidence, hoping to be heard and adopted all around the world through each delegate present in the room. The entire conference centre was brimming with positivity and to us the idea of survival in the world of a merciless tomorrow was not just a dream anymore. </div>

I could go on and on about how the conference opens up avenues of knowledge you never knew existed, but what I would like to stress about, is the HELICOPTER VIEW of the world that you get in three days. In three short, sleepless days, you hear about the most vital issues first hand from those who are fighting them on the front lines. You not only get to meet people who are genuinely pushing the world to end poverty or end gender inequality or even stop climate change; but you also realize that these people are LESS THAN 27 YEARS OF AGE. You realize that it is us, the youth, who are responsible for shaping our own world that we want to live in. You need to have the courage to fight for your cause making this world a better place and the One Young World gives just that and more. You get the chance to network with these young leaders and be part of the One Young World community as ambassadors which can provide all the assistance and means you need for your cause.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>by <a href="http://www.essec.edu/en/staff/talk/39/197/" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Carlota GIL</span></b></a></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oSGxMPOyYsA/V-u0GNSqXlI/AAAAAAAAAQA/QPSPU9QckpcEVm8OQURaiVN9ndPbX2exACLcB/s1600/Carlota.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: justify;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oSGxMPOyYsA/V-u0GNSqXlI/AAAAAAAAAQA/QPSPU9QckpcEVm8OQURaiVN9ndPbX2exACLcB/s200/Carlota.png" width="158" /></a>When I started ESSEC, I decided to make the most of the broad range of opportunities available. Hence, I enrolled in the <a href="http://creationdunproduitinnovant.com/" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: #3d85c6;">CPI Program</span></b></a> (Création d'un Produit innovant), an entrepreneurship program which lasts 6 months and is a joint program between ESSEC, Centrale (engineering school) & Strate (design school). </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For 6 months, every Tuesday we met at <a href="https://paris.numa.co/en/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b>NUMA</b></span></a>, an incubator in the centre of Paris, to work in teams on the project we had chosen. I worked for Technicolor, a French tech company. They had given us the task to come up with a product or service which would protect their consumers' personal data on the internet in... 25 years time!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The project was extremely challenging since we had to imagine how the internet would evolve, how our society would adapt to it and how we would behave as individuals in an even more connected world! After 6 months, we presented our project to the jury and won a trip to San Francisco to meet the most successful companies at the heart of the Silicon Valley.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One year later, six other winners and I embarked upon this great journey, boarded a plane to San Francisco and landed in the hub of worldwide innovation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;">"Silicon Valley is as tantalizing as it is intimidating"</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9Qi2VGGbD5I/V-u0rEi0MII/AAAAAAAAAQI/IssoNWl5Q8MKd8S1kMmZO70ebfEdWODZACLcB/s1600/14329139_10154409432378726_782369287_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9Qi2VGGbD5I/V-u0rEi0MII/AAAAAAAAAQI/IssoNWl5Q8MKd8S1kMmZO70ebfEdWODZACLcB/s200/14329139_10154409432378726_782369287_o.jpg" width="200" /></a>We started off by visiting Google and its breathtaking campus. With over 30 000 employees at their Mountain View site, Google's campus is literally a self-sufficient city of its own. Dozens of restaurants, thousands of Google bikes to enable Googlers to move around. We could feel that something big was happening around us! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We went on to visit AirBnB. They own a fantastic office as well, 6-story high, with hundreds of different themed rooms to spark creativity and foster innovation. What a great place to work!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
Moreover, we met other startups, entrepreneurs and even a former colleague of Steve Jobs who had launched the iTunes Store and went on to launch the Kindle for Amazon! What an inspiring environment!<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

I truly felt that they were so far ahead from us in Europe, in terms of innovation, ways of working and cultural acceptance of failure. A place where the most influential investors in the world gather at a bar, hoping to meet the next Elon Musk or Steve Jobs, is just something I could not imagine possible. Everything seemed so easy. However, I rapidly understood that the Silicon Valley is a very competitive place where everyone tries to thrive but hardly anyone succeeds. It is as tantalizing as it is intimidating. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I left San Francisco with the mighty desire to come back and experience the <i>Silicon Valley fever</i> in the future... </div>

By way of background
I am a Computer Science Engineer from India. After completing my Engineering
degree I worked at BNP Paribas as a Software Developer for about two years.
Currently, I am doing an internship as a Risk Data Analyst at Société Générale,
Paris. I will continue to work with Société Générale as an apprentice from July
2016.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-IN"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-IN">I came to France
in August 2015, but even two months before that, I wasn’t even sure that I would be able to make it to France. Most students from middle-class background
understand how hard it can get when you want to fund your entire studies yourself.
Nevertheless, I came here with a plan. </span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span lang="EN-IN"><span style="font-size: large;">"Unlike most students I wasn't just looking for experience of a job fair: I was looking for a job!"</span></span></span></i></blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-IN">The plan was an ambitious and usual one
which most students follow. I knew that with the flexibility ESSEC provides, I
would succeed if I work hard. From my experience at BNP Paribas, I knew that I
wanted to work in Finance Sector.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-IN"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-IN">I was admitted
at ESSEC in the very first round, which gave me a lot of time to research. I
got in touch with some current students and alumni who helped me immensely
during this period. During my research, I found that ESSEC has a finance fair
in October a couple of months after we were scheduled to arrive. I knew this
would be a great opportunity. Being the first job fair, unlike most students I
wasn’t just looking for experience of a job fair: I was looking for a job!</span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
<span lang="EN-IN"><i><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">"I learned from my mistakes each time I went up and spoke to someone"</span></i></span></blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-IN">After attending
various talks by the Career Services at ESSEC, I came up with a strategy for
the job fair. I decided to first approach the banks which I knew wouldn’t have
roles that I was interested in. This would give me an experience of how to interact
with them without any real harm at my chances. Once I had mastered the tactics,
I approached the banks I was interested in. I started my day at about 9am, and
by 11am I had spoken with more than 5 banks already. The first two talks didn’t
even last for 30 seconds. But I learned from my mistakes each time I went up
and spoke to someone. That was the advantage of having so many banks. In
fact, I met with an alumnus of ESSEC who was there representing a bank and
asked for some advice. And voila, I was ready to approach the banks I was
interested to work for. Soon I got a couple of leads which I had to follow up.
And even though this may sound like a fairy tale, Société Générale (where I am
currently working) was the last bank I approached that day!</span></div>

that getting only two leads from more than 6 banks was good enough, but
nonetheless I followed up on those leads on the same night. I didn’t get a
reply for about a week. At this moment, I had almost given up hope and started
applying through online portals and other channels. But after about 15 days, I
got a call during a lecture from an unknown number. It could’ve been anyone,
but my heart was racing like a Ferrari. If this was a football field, I would
have crossed my classmates like Messi would pass across all the defenders! I
couldn’t pick up that call, but I had a voicemail in French which I thought
said that they’re calling from Société Générale and wanted to schedule an
interview. I ran to one of my French friends and asked him to confirm the same.
And there it was, my first interview call. The next month was occupied with
interviews and online tests but I made through this opportunity to start my
internship in January, just 4 months after coming to France!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-IN">From being the
student ambassador to my first internship in France, it has been a joyride. My
Return on Investment is more than 100% in less than one year. I was able to
make some amazing friends, learn from the best professors around the world and
travel to the most beautiful places in Europe all within this one year. To all
the people who always ask me “Why France?” or “Why ESSEC”, I would like to ask
“Well. Why not?!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
