HanHee Lee(FMBA 2024, LG Innotek)
I am Hanhee Lee from the Full-Time MBA Class of 2024. In the summer of 2023, I completed an internship at a global automotive parts company as an Automotive Components Project Manager, and in January, I was offered a full-time position. I am thrilled to begin my career at one of the largest companies in the automotive industry.
Before pursuing the MBA, I worked in technology sales, focusing on competitor analysis and market research. However, I often struggled to analyze large datasets and develop mid-to-long-term strategic plans due to limited management knowledge and data analysis skills. Learning about SKK GSB’s Full-Time MBA, particularly its analytics-focused track, I realized it was the perfect opportunity to broaden my perspective and address the gaps in my skills.
The MBA program has been directly applicable to my work as a project manager, where I oversee projects from quotation to completion. Effective resource management, timeline planning, maintaining quality, fostering communication with partners, and understanding post-production supply chains are all critical. Through courses in data analysis, sales and marketing, and communication, I now feel equipped to manage the entire project management process with confidence.
The Career Development Center (CDC) also played a key role in my journey, helping me secure my summer internship. With support on resume writing, LinkedIn profile optimization, and alumni connections, I gained valuable insight into the industry I wanted to join.
For prospective students, I would advise reflecting honestly on why you want to pursue an MBA. Ask yourself: why business administration, why Korea, and why SKK GSB? For me, the analytics track and 100% English instruction made SKK GSB the ideal choice, and it has opened doors I could not have imagined before.
Sally Marshall (FMBA 2023, SKT)
After completing my Full-Time MBA at SKK GSB in 2023 with specializations in Management and Business Analytics, I joined SK Telecom through the Global Junior Talent recruitment program and began my career as an HR Manager. Before pursuing the MBA, I came from a non-business background with limited experience, and transitioning into HR felt challenging. Studying at SKK GSB offered a strong pathway to build business fundamentals, explore new fields, and gain a competitive edge. Knowing that SKK GSB is consistently ranked Korea’s No.1 MBA program made my decision even clearer.
The program equipped me with practical and relevant skills that I apply daily in my role. Quantitative Analysis for Business Decisions, for example, has helped me work confidently with employee data and reporting. Strategic Management courses also shaped the way I align HR initiatives with broader business goals to support talent development and organizational growth. Beyond academics, the experience strengthened my strategic mindset, communication ability, and confidence in approaching business challenges.
Throughout the MBA journey, I received meaningful support from the Career Development Center. Personalized 1:1 sessions, including application reviews and mock interviews, helped refine my career direction and strengthened my readiness for the job market.
For prospective students considering the MBA, I want to emphasize that although the program is intensive, it is exceptionally well-structured with outstanding faculty and resources. The knowledge, experience, and global network gained during the program have been truly invaluable—and they continue to positively influence my career every day.
