French/European Business schools good or nah ?

Hi guys, 

As a french stud i wanted to know if French business schools are worth it for an IB carreer in the US ? I know that HEC, ESSEC ESCP are the flaghship ones but what about the rest ? Skema,EM, Edhec etc... do recruiters pay attention to where you come from if you don't go to an ivy league or a top tier university  ?

Give up on european schools to go to top jobs in the US. Literally impossible. Especially as Americans won't even one single french school maybe HEC if they are seasoned.... Clearly not a good bet try LBS or LSE (both might even be taken as the same).... Good luck
