#EN: Headhunter and Consultant, Jarda Němec & Egon Zehnder: How a lazy student becomes one of the most successful professionals
“Can I see how you do it?” He asked. Then he became one of them.
Jarda Němec, a headhunter and a consultant for Egon Zehnder.
An ordinary boy from Litvínov; a hockey player, of course.
And a scientist. At least based on his PhD diploma.
He started his career as a manager at PwC. Being around 30 years old he was one of the oldest.
Then he moved to work for O2.
Then came a long journey at Microsoft. As a Finance Lead in CEE HQ he was responsible for more than 25 countries with over 1B$ revenue, coordinating activities among Microsoft subsidiaries and HQ in Redmond.
And, finally, he bid his faraway to Microsoft and joined Egon Zehnder and a totally different industry - headhunting.
“You are not a typical CFO, you are only wasting your time,” they used to say.
And they were right.
