Columbia MBA Employment

Hi, I work in London (UK citizen) and plan to attend the CBS J term next January. I'm 27, have 5YOE at a $2B long-only fund here, but I wish to move to the US after MBA completion. How likely is it for me to be sponsored by some asset manager (e.g. T Rowe, Capital Group, etc.) or even smaller long-only/hedge funds? Would they hire me for the OPT period only?
