Madrid - Targets Outside Spain

Which are the foreign target schools for Consulting / IBD / PE in Madrid? From what I’ve seen on LinkedIn it’s mostly HEC, LSE, and Imperial are there others? Thanks!

HEC, LSE, LBS and Imperial are probably the most common non-Spanish EU targets in Madrid. Then you've always got a couple of people from typical EU targets like Bocconi and HSG.

But the Madrid industry tends to favour UK experience/education. You'll see quite a few Spanish nationals who studied at UK russel group unis, although most of them do a masters in Madrid or the previosuly mentioned EU unis.

You see a lot of people from UCL and Warwick too, but I think this is primarily because they are unis that have a lot of Spanish students and big finance/IB culture - I don't think recruiters in Spain target these places specifically.
