Getting a job in New York with a BSc from LSE!

Hi,

I've recently graduated with a BSc in Politics from the London School of Economics, and was wondering if anyone can give me any advice on what kind of graduate jobs I would be able to apply for in New York?

I am planning to move to NY with my fiancee (who is an American citizen) so won't need a firm to sponsor a Visa or anything like that.

In the UK with an LSE degree, I'd be able to apply to the top management consulting firms, which is what I'd love to do in New York too, but it seems like a lot of firms only hire from target-US colleges?

Thank you in advance!
