From 10 rejections to 1 dream investment banking internship
“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
It won't be a waste of time if: 1) You choose a school where there are professionals with networks. If you go to a school where 90% of student just finished their undergrad, you won't build a network that is immediately beneficial. 2) You do internships while you're in the program. Even if it means delaying graduation, if you want a better chance at graduating on Friday and working on Monday, you need to be doing internships!
Do you have a GMAT score? Any good MSF will be beneficial, where is your citizenship? I disagree that you should go to a post-experience program, the best programs in the US are all pre/limited experience programs.
I'm taking my gmat test in 2 weeks, but according to my practice exams I should score between 650-700. I have citizenship in France and Japan. It's probably important to know that I am looking at MSF programs in France right now and most do not require any work experience. To answer the post above: I am not considering an MBA program at the moment.
I would suggest going to a MBA program - you can go to any Top 25~30 programs and get a good corporate finance gig paying close to 100K.
What top 20-30 program is likely to take someone with 1 year w/e? He's best off applying to tier 1 and 2 MSFs, assuming a 650 GMAT, that list would look like BC, Villanova, SMU, Ohio State, Illinois, GWU. If he scores a 700 add in Texas, maybe WUSTL, Vandy or Claremont McKenna.
Go look and INSEAD's new MSF program. You might find it difficult to secure a job in the US without citizenship.
Thank you for your responses.
What about HEC Paris or IE
