Resumen
Esta consultoría se realizó para la escuela de negocios CENTRUM PUCP y con ella
se buscó determinar cómo se gestiona la experiencia de los postulantes MBA, obtener un
panorama de las oportunidades de mejora de la experiencia del postulante, conocer los
factores que toman en cuenta los postulantes en cada etapa del proceso para la elección de la
escuela, para ello, fue necesario determinar el Customer Journey del Postulante que permite
identificar los puntos de dolor y diseñar una estrategia orientada al postulante.
El trabajo de campo incluyó una investigación cualitativa, basada en entrevistas a
personal clave de CENTRUM y postulantes, lo cual permitió diseñar la investigación
cuantitativa basada en encuestas con estudiantes. Los principales hallazgos de estos estudios
fueron variados, si bien los postulantes consideran importante el prestigio, el horario, la
ubicación y el costo, tienen muy en cuenta la opinión de sus jefes y amigos para la elección
de la institución; consideran que los postulantes deben tener una experiencia laboral mínima;
se evidencia dudas en qué tipo de maestría les conviene; se presentaron otros puntos de dolor
como en las plataformas web, inconsistencias en el examen de admisión y evaluación
crediticia. Como resultado de la consultoría se formularon recomendaciones relacionadas con
las actividades de marketing, como la diferenciación, considerando que el interés por los
MBA está en descenso, la segmentación tomando en cuenta el desarrollo profesional de los
postulantes y el enfoque de los recursos de ventas y marketing para ganar efectividad.
Recomendaciones relacionadas con el soporte tecnológico como continuar con el proceso de
digitalización y alineación o integración de las dos plataformas existentes, PUCP y
CENTRUM con las necesidades de los postulantes. Finalmente, recomendaciones
relacionadas con la cultura para centrarla en la experiencia del postulante; diseñar una
estrategia integral basado en el Cutomer Journey y empezando internamente con los
colaboradores y dirección de CENTRUM.
