For this year’s Alumni Summer Session, the Career Centre for Life is making available specific timeslots dedicated to careers appointments for EDHEC Alumni. These interviews are free of charge and involve an hour-long discussion of your career in complete confidentiality, by video link or in person.
To sign up, choose your consultant based on your level of experience and availability, then make an appointment directly by selecting one of the available timeslots via Calendly. Make sure you will be available for the chosen time and commit to attend so as not to deprive someone else of a timeslot.
Three coaches and consultants are on hand to discuss any subject linked to your professional development, such as a problem you are encountering, a choice you need to make or questions you may have about your career going forward.
To make the most of this appointment, 48 hours in advance make sure you send your consultant a copy of an up-to-date CV, any background information that may be useful and the topic you wish to work on during the appointment.
If you can’t find a timeslot that suits you, you can email us at alumnicareercentreforlife@edhec.com
See you very soon!

He works on all types of industries and seniority levels, with a particular focus on IT and digital tech.
As a Placement consultant & Careers coach at the EDHEC Career Centre, he accompanies young graduates from the moment they begin looking for work until they sign their first job contract, which will shape the rest of their professional lives. He shows young graduates how to access the EDHEC network using techniques from the Executive Search, developed at the Career Centre under the name Reverse Hunting.
Jean-Patrick holds dual French and Canadian citizenship. He spent a few years studying the way human beings work (BA in Philosophy at Université Paris Sorbonne and BSc in Psychology at Université Paris Descartes), before going on to examine the business side of the equation (MSc in Business Development and Key Account Management at NEOMA Business School). Along the way, he spent a semester at Harvard University and one year at York University (United Kingdom).
