Anyone heard of an MBA school called INSEAD?
I was Job hunting today, and when I hit Business Week's site "Who's Hiring" page for "B-Schools," and I noticed this MBA School was near the top called INSEAD near the top of the list's, most of who are Corporations that are having Ethics problems. :shrug:

But, when I when to the INSEAD web site, it was one of those sites, that was VERY secretive and if you are not a Student, you can't get any "real" info. :wtf:

I'm wondering if it's some kind of diploma mill for the Major Corporations (Oil in particular). They don't seam to take very many Women either (14% is the number I found). Or maybe it some sort of "Not so Good Ol' Boy's" clubby place? :tinfoilhat:

Check it out at the links below, and tell me what you think.

INSEAD, France and Singapore

Note: You can see too, how many of these Corporations are hiring people from India too
:grr:

1. So should Indians not be hired...
by multinational corporations?

Are technology jobs only reserved for those in the US and Europe? Are only those in the west entitled to these jobs?

2. No, they can be hired
But just stop lying to the American people that Out sourcing is NOT going on and that it hasn't become a problem, in our weak economy.:eyes:

I the hypocrisy of all the jingoistic "flag waving," these bastards are doing, then they call us Un-Patriotic for not marching to War with them, then you find evidence like this.

You know what I mean, I like Indian people, but it's the * lies that really piss me off.

5. Ah ok, my fault...I've seen a few (rare) that blame those

in other countries for the outsourcing problem.

I agree with you though. The corporate/Bush lies are annoying and I think that by outsourcing, corporations are shooting themselves in the foot in the long run. After all, if there is no consumer base here, how will they make money?

What did seem interesting though is that many corporations are recruiting even the MBAs at Indian Universities. Maybe this will cause managament to eventually wake up and realize that there isn't any reason why their job can't be outsourced either.

3. INSEAD is the real deal. I think it's a European B School
and it is one of the 2 or 3 most respected international business schools. It's not Harvard or Wharton, but having INSEAD on your resume will open many, many doors.
