MSc Finance of Imperial or Master in Finance of ESSEC ?
The question is simple. I've been admitted to these 2 Masters. I speak french and english so working in London or Paris is not a problem for me.

I would definitely go for imperial unless you plan on living in France long term. What’s your profile?
Thank you for this tips. I currently live in France and I would like to work in France (where is my family and friends) but if Imperial is better, it won't be a problem for me. I would like to work in IBD (begin in midcap and largecap in long term).
Where do you prefer to be working? - London: Imperial - Paris: ESSEC
France but Imperial is well-known in France I suppose ?
ESSEC will place you better in IB if you want to stay in Paris because alumni and networking sessions
Thank you a lot for your answer. Do you have some friends who did ESSEC ?
I worked with an analyst who studied in ESSEC but he came back to my country (other continental europe country) because he wanted to. He is definitely working in IB and had offers to work in Paris
