"Really great candidates ? diverse industries, strong work experience, international. Hugely qualified" Alexis Mellon, Duke University's Fuqua School of Business "In an uncertain MBA market, we decided to increase the overall number of fairs and cities that we visited this past year. This combined with other marketing and recruiting tactics has led to a strong increase in applications this year. We know that attending these fairs is crucial in order to meet prospects and talk about why an MBA, and specifically a GW MBA, is a strong investment" Shelly Heinrich, George Washington University School of Business "We would like to thank QS for organizing MBA fairs all over the world. We have been collaborating with QS for many years now, and it is a key institution to our recruiting offers. We have met students from all over the world during the QS fairs, and many of them ended up joining IE Business School. We are looking forward to more successful tours with QS. Great organization, great people, and a lot of potential students!" Eliana El Hage, IE Business School "I have been very impressed with the overall organization of QS events I have personally attended.The quality of service, the willingness to continuously seek improvement , and the friendliness of QS employees is exceptional. In addition, this past year I was pleasantly surprised at the large numbers and quality of participants at fairs in some of the emerging markets.Well done to the QS team!" Melissa Jones, INSEAD "Excellent candidates who seemed particularly interested in Oxford" Paull Hammond-Davies, Oxford University, Said Business School "Great event! Good quality - in my view you've targeted the right people for today's event" Ffion Hughes, Manchester Business School
