MAcc/MBT for IB/PE Placement

Hello again,

Will a MAcc or MBT help a candidate land an IB/PE job?

I have been looking into USC's MAcc/MBT, but 99% of their placements are into the Big 4 (which I wouldn't mind doing for 2-3 years). In addition, USC has a vast alumni network, and a great reputation in SoCal.

So my next question would be, is there any way I could sneak into UG OCR and land a spot at an IB?

Thanks for the input.

 

I don't think a MAcc will help you, nor with a MBT, unfortunately. A MSF/MFin would probably be better (hopefully ANT can chime in on this).

Also, I don't think it's possible for you to sneak into UG's OCR. Schools are usually pretty strict about that kind of stuff and won't let you participate unless you are an UG.

If anyone knows otherwise, please share because I would LOVE to be able to use UG OCR again.
