About the Universum Talent Research

2.200educational institutions

WE HAVE CONDUCTED THE

UNIVERSUM TALENT SURVEY

FOR OVER 25 YEARS

Total number of respondents

in the survey 2016:

1.300.000+

• Created based on over 25 years of experience,

extensive research within HR, focus groups and

communication with both our clients and talent

• Global perspective - local insight

• Conducted via an online survey. The online link

was distributed via university and alumni-

networks, communities, the Universum Panel

and different local and global partners

• In order to provide our clients with reliable data

we set targets per main field of study and

educational institution/industry to reflect the

actual distribution of students and professionals.

Weighting is used to compensate for

discrepancies from the targets.

• Note that only data based on all respondents or

on all respondents within a main field of study is

weighted. Breakdowns like gender, high

achievers or other more specific target groups

are not weighted.

The Universum Career Profiles

2016 | Lebanon | All main fields of study

88

are future-oriented individuals who ultimately want to be managers and

leaders of groups of people in a business environment. They have no

problem starting from the bottom and learning what each rung on the ladder

is like. In fact, many Careerists consider this process imperative to being a

well-rounded leader later on in their careers. Careerists tend to be ambitious,

but are also team-oriented, so they often bring others up along with them

(riding their coattails so to speak). Careerists are also adaptable, meaning

they are not set on any one way of achieving success and will instead do

whatever they need to in order to adjust to a given situation.

are curious and creative individuals who are primarily focused on challenging

and innovative work. When searching for job opportunities, entrepreneurs

look for fast-growing companies that share their entrepreneurial spirit.

Entrepreneurs tend to be solution-focused, which means they are most

effective when there is an active problem to solve. They lean towards

leadership roles and are focused on team dynamics. Entrepreneurs can bore

quickly if they feel stagnant, which means they are always looking to lead

their team to new challenges.

are responsible and loyal individuals who are happy to take on responsibilities

for the good of the team. Their friendliness and comfort around others makes

them natural leaders, and their desire for harmony makes them excellent in

team-oriented settings. They are also very successful when taking

internships, as they find it easy to get along with whomever they are working

for. Their driver is happiness. They would like to have a stable job where they

are among nice colleagues.

are eager to search for new business opportunities and expect a competitive

compensation as well as career advancement and high future earnings. A

hunter is wired to be solution-focused, which enables him or her to provide

answers for customer problems, which is an important facet for salespeople.

Hunter personalities experience a continuous personal renewal. They are

able to show growth and project how their skill sets will most benefit an

organisation. This adaptive quality is a highly valued trait in dynamic

organisations.

want to work in organizations that value and respect their employees, while

taking an ethical stand on issues of corporate responsibility. As might be

expected, an idealist values environmental sustainability and wants to align with

companies that share the same values. Although idealists are dedicated to

causes for the greater good, they are not merely dreamers and can offer viable

solutions that often include creative experimentation. Idealists are fully capable

of envisioning a higher state while implementing and leading teams in task-

focused efforts.

tend to be “big-picture” individuals who focus primarily on the future instead of

day-to-day or historical situations. They usually (but not always) know relatively

early on in their lives that they want to have an international career and are

usually interested in building international connections. Companies that are

global in scope, or at the very least companies that have offices and/or

operations in multiple parts of the world, will be most appealing to

Internationalists. They are curious, open-minded and they value social

interaction.

are able to see the big picture in any situation, which helps them inspire both

their teams and themselves. They prefer the numerous benefits of working with

others in a team environment, rather than being a “lone-wolf”. Leaders aren’t

afraid of being responsible for situations. They see responsibility as something

to be desired and sought after. Because they understand that, their success or

failure is ultimately in their own hands. Leaders are also quite introspective; they

can look inward and assess themselves honestly and, when necessary, harshly.

Before starting their careers, leaders are often involved in various types of

organisations, and are often responsible for the founding and growth of projects.
