LBS MFin Recruiting Target Industry

Hello,

I have been admitted to the LBS Master in Finance program and I am highly considering it. I am currently at a new role in NYC but am extremely interested in making the jump to Europe, and I believe this is the best way to do so. 

How does recruiting for LBS Master in Finance students look for the Trading/HF/PM/AM industries? For background, I have a three years of experience (both Sales and Trading) in NYC at a low ranking EU bank. Is the grand majority of recruiting from this program focused on PE/IB/RE so that I should choose a different school for this?  

Lastly, would I most likely have to recruit for summer internships + Analyst programs? Do any firms hire for more senior positions from Msc Finance programs?

Thanks!
