Company Reachout for Kellogg Job Board postings
Our goal is to increase awareness of professional opportunities on the continent, and one way of doing this is to get more Africa-related jobs listed on the Kellogg Job Board. Where possible, please reach out to former employers or professional contacts on the continent to ask if they have MBA-level opportunities they’d like to list on the Job Board. Please contact Utibe Bassey at ubassey2014@kellogg.northwestern.edu for more information on this and next steps.
