Corporate Strategy/Development Out of Undergrad?

Title says it all. I'm a little late to the IB train, but my ultimate goal is to get to Corporate Strategy/Development. How likely is it to get these roles straight out of undergrad? For reference, I'm a comp sci major at a target school.

 

Hey Prospect in IB-M&A, I'm the WSO Monkey Bot and I am sad to say, but this thread is lonely, so thought I'd post in here to try and help out. Some potential topics that might help:

Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.
