EDHEC Master in Management
Hi Monkeys,
I am looking to work in France soon and I have been accepted to EDHEC's Mim program. I have a European residency and will be business fluent in French by the time I graduate.
I want to work in corporate strategy/development a couple years down the line and I have read that IB/consulting after graduating and then moving to corp. strat/dev is the way to go.
I understand France's elitist system and also the relationship between business schools and engineering schools.
My question is, will this school give me the opportunity to go into IB/consulting when I graduate? Or should I pursue some other way to break into corp strat/corp dev?
probably yes. Mostly dependent on you, what kind of internships you have/can get and then networking. While I havent seen many graduates from EDHEC at the top banks in London I am sure there are a few, many more at second tier places as well.
Will you be at the Nice campus?
Yes.
Sweet. I'll probably be down later this year. Could meet up for a drink!
are you accepted into business management(lille) or financial economics(nice) track? You can break into IB from Nice campus but edhec is much more a finance/audit school and strategy consulting is not so strong. did you consider EM Lyon if you were not accepted into the top 3?
If F500 strategy/development is where you want to end up, you can consider apprentisage track ( work + study over 2 years and the company pays your tuition fees). Key to finding a full time job in France is having plenty of solid internships. Due to socialist laws companies are always reluctant to hire full timers.
