MFin at IE for international students

Hey!
I just got into the IE MFin course. Needed any insights into the post graduation employment opportunities in Spain for an international student (I am from India)
I have also applied into a few US colleges (UT Austin, Brandeis, Boston College, USC), yet to hear from them, below is my profile.

Bachelors in Finance from India (3.6/4)
IB workex- 2 years
Decent ECA

Should I get into any of the US colleges, which option would be better? I am basically concerned with employment post my graduation.

Dont expect to get a IB/Consulting job in Spain tbh, you really need to be fluent in Spanish, almost native level and people are kind of racist. In any case you should have a good shot in UK, but very hard to get into any good paying job in Spain as there are quite a few and language is a huge barrier

 

Yes UK offices hire from IE, currently visas wouldn't be an issue but as you can imagine with brexit etc it's too early to say if it will change or not...

I would have argued the same as other people below, that with your profile, you should have aced the GMAT and applied for MBAs in the US as UG programs is the entry for Analyst roles, and MBAs for associates yet MFins are kinda in between and are in most cases one year programs whereby you cannot do a summer internship (main feeder for IB FT roles), thus making it just harder.
