2025 MSF/MiM programs to land a job in Finance/Consulting for international student

Age: 22 y.o. 

Education:

1. BSc in Economics (best uni in my country) very low GPA, graduated when I was 19 y.o.

2. MSc in Business Management (same uni) very low GPA 

GMAT: 750 

Professional Experience: 

1. 2020-2021: Big4 Audit full-time internship, got an offer but declined it because audit seemed to be boring for me 

2. 2022-2025: Self-Employed. Saved up money to move to the US.

3. 2025 - now: Big4 Deal Advisory, Business Valuation full-time internship. I'm also studying for my CFA which I'm planning to pass before enrollment. 

Which programs will give me a chance to get a job in IB/Big4/Big3 in the US considering that I am an international student? M7 only? Or it's not that bad for me? Thanks!
