大家聊聊groupon吧

wordance

groupon最近在疯狂扩张，有consulting的朋友说他们在国内找了很多BCG和MCK的人。他们现在招聘信息都发到学校来了，而且口气超大，光下面的第一条就刷掉了大部分人。大家怎么看？我怎么总觉得他们这个business有点泡沫呢？而且我觉得他们的招聘方针有点好高骛远。真正要想在中国做零售，地面上的草根和跑堂子的也是很重要的。MBA和consultants之类的，找一两个意思一下就够了。招多了会坏事。不知道大家怎么看？

Here's the profile we're looking for at Groupon China:

·  Very strong business background

o Consulting (McKinsey, BCG or Bain, or equivalent)
o Banking (Goldman, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan, or bulge bracket)
o MBA (HBS/Columbia/Wharton/Stanford, or top b-school)
·  Highly entrepreneurial
·  Young (at heart) and very mobile (i.e. can move to a new city in China immediately)
·  Really "gets" the social shopping space and Groupon's business model
·  Fluent or native ability in Mandarin Chinese

希望

在国内据说雇了十几家猎头狂挖其它团购网站的人，很强大的样子，继续瞧着。

I guess the hiring team is totally out of mind.

Professionals with retail sales, marketing or branding in FMCG
, or even outlet owners make better sense.

If it is instructed by the management team in US and Groupon was listed , I will definitely short its stock.
