Work Experience or Postgraduation

So I am currently residing outside Us or Europe studying business management finance at a UK based uni currently 2nd year is over, 3rd shall start.

I have only 2 months work experience as a Advisory intern in a fund locally (currently 1 done 1 left)

I wanted to know if I should continue working after graduation or to pursue postgraduation such as MSc or MFA in UK or US.

Goal is to go into IB or HF someday.
