INSEAD vs LBS for career switcher into IB
Hey guys. I am in a dilemma. I have worked in operations:project management role for a healthcare company for 4 years and want to transition into healthcare IB in a BB.Given that I am coming from a non finance background 1. Which one - LBS or INSEAD will give me better opportunities to make that smooth transition as well as provide me with good placement in IB. 2. Insead sep vs Jan intake. Which to choose? Goal- work in GS healthcare M&A. Fire away folks!
I would tend to argue that LBS is better in your case, assuming you do not target French/ SEA IB roles. INSEAD is a strong consulting school and its presence in IB hubs does not really compare with LBS'. LBS on the other hand tends to have a strong set of corporate finance electives. Placement-wise, both will do a decent job through OCR, etc., but LBS will give you a leg up to network in London.
