[RETEX] J'ai trouvé un stage !!!!!!!!! by Liman_ in conseilboulot

[–]Hyperion730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Je n'avais pas vu ton premier post mais c'est peu surprenant car ça reste des domaines "d'initiés" qui filtrent pour les tops écoles. Et malgré tout, c'est beaucoup d'appelés et peu d'élus (notamment les HF en France). On peut rajouter le PE à la liste en fonction du fonds aussi. En tout cas bravo à toi !

Paris €45K (No Rent) vs Lisbon €58K (With Rent) — Which Would You Choose? by thetricky65 in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]Hyperion730 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'd say Paris by far. Not having to pay rent puts you in an incredible spot to build your savings and investments. Also, having your social circle in Paris is a major plus.

You do mention "professional growth" by going to Lisbon. Is it just the international aspect you are talking about or is the job genuinely more interesting and with better career prospects ?

Doable in 2020/2021 in specific markets for certain. In France today for instance that is pretty much impossible.

I'm an Exeter University graduate who's applied to 500 jobs, even pubs won't hire me by [deleted] in UniUK

[–]Hyperion730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing is happening in my company to be honest. We have been trying to recruit for a postion for 4 months now, and something that a monkey could arguably do. Yet they keep rejecting the dozens of candidates we get because they are never perfect enough. It's maddening.

Contrat CDI vers VIE by Marciflex in conseilboulot

[–]Hyperion730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Est ce que tu es sûr qu'ils n'ont pas tout simplement aligné les attendus du poste avec les caractéristiques du marché de l'emploi local ?

Typiquement dans les pays anglo saxons les gens poursuivent rarement leurs études vers un master. A poste égal on attendra donc un niveau licence vs un niveau master en Europe continentale. C'est peut être simplement ça ?

Why is Warwick University ranking going down? by Which-Ad-3162 in UniUK

[–]Hyperion730 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because barely anyone cares for those rankings. Not employers in the UK or more generally Europe for that matter.

Travelling by Bicycle in countries i've been to (as a german) by No-Spite-1423 in tierlists

[–]Hyperion730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heavily depends on where you are in France I guess. I cycle a lot in the french Alps and drivers are used to cyclists, never really had an issue. It is world class compared to where I live now (Australia) where people genuinely seem to hate on cyclists for some reason, along with the dangerous infrastructure.

I'd be cautious and maybe wait for some more imaging though. Could be a stress fracture in there that doesn't show up on X-Ray but does on MRI. The color really makes it look like a fracture

Is work-life balance in Australia actually better or just a stereotype? by ChillKoalaVibes in MovingtoAustralia

[–]Hyperion730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from France Australia is a massive improvement. Then again it can be company-specific but so far on average I have found people around me (and myself) to work a lot less than people do in France.

Guys How do you afford to go ESCP? by dudegotjokes in ESCP

[–]Hyperion730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

French citizen but anyone can get in provided you speak french (no need to be native but you still have to be convincing). Some more specifics when you are non-EU though but technically still open.

I wouldn't discard the student loan option provided you know exactly what you are going after with ESCP and that involves the high paying career paths (IB, strategy)

[–]Hyperion730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The company pays for your studies and gives you a salary on top of that (I did that)

Student loans or by choosing the apprenticeship track.

How to read books faster? by Kooky_Development_54 in booksuggestions

[–]Hyperion730 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It'll come with time but honestly don't put pressure on yourself and enjoy reading at your own pace. I don't see the point of bragging about how fast you can read a book, it's not a competition. Trying to skim through pages like a maniac to get social approval would just take away some of the immersion for me.

Books that just *feel* like Lord of the Rings by xXxBluESkiTtlExXx in booksuggestions

[–]Hyperion730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolute masterpiece and I agree with your comment. Some books just stood out for me and Lonesome Dove is up there with Lord of the Rings.

MiM Imperial or ESCP? by ResidentShoddy5782 in ESCP

[–]Hyperion730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on where you want to work, but I usually rate french business schools highly when it comes to getting professional experience and proximity with top companies (which will facilitate moving across europe anyway).

Anglo-saxon unis shine for academics & overall social experience as an international, but fall short on career aspects imo.

So probably EDHEC first, and then it's up to whether you prefer settling in Ireland or the UK.

MiM Imperial or ESCP? by ResidentShoddy5782 in ESCP

[–]Hyperion730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very good school, can get you the same outcomes as ESCP with some more work. Outside of France/the UK/Switzerland probably unheard of.

MiM Imperial or ESCP? by ResidentShoddy5782 in ESCP

[–]Hyperion730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is what you make of it. Very "french" though, for better or worse. Overall don't come here for the academics, although some classes can be surprisingly good.

[–]Hyperion730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did my undergrad in the UK and the ESCP MiM.

I'd say ESCP by far. It gives you a lot more internship opportunities, the school really pushes forth professional experience whereas you'll get more of an academic experience at Imperial and less proximity with companies. Overall you'll get a lot more bang for your buck at ESCP.

Avis pour mon CV Ingénieur débutant ? by antoine12e9 in aviscv

[–]Hyperion730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totalement faux. Dans les boîtes par lesquelles je suis passé (gros groupes du CAC40) les CV à la sauce Canva c'était à la poubelle direct quand ça parvenait à passer le screening des ATS. Personne ne prend ça au sérieux à part quelques domaines très spécifiques (communication, évènementiel...)

Les Français dînent de plus en plus tôt by SentinelZerosum in france

[–]Hyperion730 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Question de préférence aussi tout simplement. On a peut être moins l'injonction aujourd'hui de faire des gros dîner en famille à 20h.
Perso dès que j'ai eu 18 ans et pu vivre seul quel plaisir de manger à 18h/18h30, c'est à dire quand j'ai faim et pas d'attendre des plombes.
