IB after Bocconi as American?

What would it be like for me to work in investment banking as an American if I wanted to attend Bocconi? What would it be like trying to get a job in investment banking in NYC after? What about London (I’m a UK citizen) but have never lived there. Also, do internationals work in Italy after if they don’t speak fluent Italian?

Target universities in the US would be completely unaffordable for me, and Bocconi is relatively affordable for me and seems like a good fit. I don’t know if you guys might have any other ideas for me??? Anyway, thank you so much.
