Bump for those who don't visit WSO during the weekend..
Last bump, any opinions?
From what I have seen its best to intern/convert to FT even with LSE on your CV. Apply for off-cycle internships - you shouldn't have a problem if you have completed 2 elite boutique M&A internships (why not ask them if you can return/transfer office?) If you want to do the Masters go for it - you can still intern after your done (during the summer) if you network/have a strong application (which it looks like you do).
Edit: I know several people who interned after their Masters as well as a VP who did the Masters you mentioned at LSE and got in directly through grad recruitment. If you come to LSE hit me up and ill pass on his contact info.
Thanks @"Charles-perry", really helpful. I really don't want to intern after my Master's degree so I guess I just try my luck in FT recruiting, although I know that it will be a struggle. Do you by any chance know if it's possible to score a FT position in NYC or one of the Asian financial hubs coming from LSE w/o a working Visa? Will hit you up, when I'm in London, thank you!
