Frequently asked Questions
How the BE-EDGE Center for Global Talents works?
The center promotes Boutique Employability– the individuals’ ability to contribute their multidimensional backgrounds to the diversity and competitiveness of the modern workplace, by guiding students through personalized career path illumination, competitive advantage building, and networking.
What is the BE-EDGE process?
BE-EDGE method is a sequence of actions, using the E-D-G-E steps (Elucidate your core, Develop social and professional trust, Generate value, Excite the market by making an impact) to help craft the differentiator by investing in a student’s personal, social, professional, and impression capitals.
Why was the center created?
Over 80% of international students are unsure about their career path after graduation. They struggle to gain the real-world experience and are often caught between an aspirational “I should” mindset—improving skills, learning about new cultures, and socializing—and a preferential “I would rather” mindset—just getting a job and staying in their comfort zones. To overcome these challenges, they need a strategy to stand out and showcase their multidimensional talents.
How do we navigate this journey as a member?
Members are offered a series of courses, workshops and events that helps them to navigate the EDGE steps along with the mindsets of “I should” – learn more about the market and industry, “I do” – practical consulting cases to gain experience, and avoiding the “I would” rather ideology by stepping out of their comfort zone, connecting with like-minded people, and practicing socializing skills in a safe space.
