MBB Middle East from Bocconi

I will be joining Bocconi's bachelor in economics and finance on a full scholarship. Interested in MC in the middle east. I also speak Arabic fluently. Should I try to recruit directly after my bachelor's or should I wait until completing my master's program?

Bain MENA is the worst of them bc they dont compete well on a lot of projects, so they do exclusively oil rn. In general, they've come off to me as a less legit version trying to play at being like NA MBB - they're much less professional and that can reflect in the office experience. This is from interviewing w several MBB MENA offices and having really bad experiences (either interviews that were unprofessional and very easy -- like they were play acting at trying to give a case or people were very rude) and ultimately choosing a NA office instead.

 

I heard MBB does a lot of federal PMO projects in ME, especially BCG. But I think this is more due to the region rather than the quality of the firm.
