Hi everyone!

I'm a last year bachelor in Economics from an Eastern Europe university. I've been working in a Big 4 firm for over 4 months now. Actually I posted few months ago with a question which job offer should i take and I'm grateful to the people who responded in my thread. I'd be very thankful if you help me with my current issue again.

Ultimately I want to work in IB/PE. Before that I am planning a Msc degree in Finance in UK/Europe.

I'm going to apply for an analyst position in a local M&A specialized (but also fund raising, corporate finance) firm. I want to work till eventually I begin a MSc in late 2013.

I'd like to ask you of your opinion on my situation. Should I leave the accounting job and eventually acquire work experience in a more IB-related field or should I stay and try to break into IB/PE right after my Msc given that I don't have IB/PE experience?

Thank you very much for any responses!
