Online M.B.A. from Swiss Business School

Do you know if any IBs from Canada or Europe would take me on as an Associate or even an Analyst if I receive an online M.B.A. from Swiss Business School? SBS is known to place its graduates into banks like JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank, and UBS from its on-campus M.B.A. program, but I just don't have the time or money to do the on-campus version. I'm 27 years old, and getting an M.B.A. seems important to me at this stage.

I've never met anyone at an IB who got their MBA from an online program. Therefore, while I've never heard of SBS or it's online program, I wouldn't think that the online program would help you at all in getting a job at an IB. Also, it's probably worth checking to see if the online program gets you access to the on campus recruiting. If it doesn't, then you'll have to do all the recruiting on your own, which would be incredibly difficult.

Not sure how it's viewed in Europe, but at least in the US, online programs are viewed as a joke and not taken seriously.
