UNC Kenan-Flagler or Cornell Johnson for MBA

Is Cornell CAS good for IB recruiting?
I'm off to Cornell CAS this fall. I applied ED last fall to CAS rather than AEM (I've always wanted to do finance, just CAS was easier to get into, and I like learning a variety of subjects rather than just Finance/Business courses). I plan to major in Econ if I stay in CAS. I'm also considering...
