​Michael Schulte
Founder, The Founders Collegium. Teaches the AI track in Harvard Business School’s Field X course
m-r-s

​On October 28, she’s coming to Harvard Business School to open up the recruiting playbook.

​This will not be generic career advice. You’ll learn how hiring actually works from the other side of the table and what you can do differently starting the next day.

​You’ll learn

  • ​How top recruiters actually find candidates

  • ​What makes someone stand out in the first few seconds

  • ​How to make your LinkedIn findable and immediately understandable

  • ​What gets candidates through the first recruiting screens

  • ​What hired candidates do differently

  • ​How to position yourself for the roles you actually want

​More than a fireside chat: Live workshop

​We’ll pull up LinkedIn profiles from people in the room and let Krystal evaluate them exactly as she would while sourcing talent.

​You’ll leave with concrete next steps to improve how you show up, get discovered, and approach your next opportunity.

​Put yourself on the radar

​Everyone who attends can opt into our talent list after check-in.

​When Krystal or recruiters across our network are looking for someone, we’ll have a room full of great people to come back to.

​Registration alone doesn’t get you on the list. You have to show up.

​Build your network before you need it

​We’re bringing together engineers, researchers, founders, MBA students, and technical builders from Harvard, MIT, Northeastern, and across Boston.

​Your next opportunity might come from a recruiter.

​It might also come from the person sitting next to you. A strong referral can change everything.

​Why we’re doing this

​Think of this as the pre-game for everything The Founders Collegium is building next.

​Before we put you in rooms with founders, engineers, recruiters, investors, and future teammates, we want to help you show up as strongly as possible.

​That means a profile people immediately understand, a clearer story around what you’re great at, and a better idea of how to position yourself for the opportunities you actually want.

​We’re investing in this workshop because we want the people in this community to be ready when the right room, person, or opportunity shows up.

​You can make that investment worth it by showing up, participating, and being the great person we already believe you are. :-)
