SDA Bocconi MICF vs ESADE Msc Finance

I need to pick btw SDA Bocconi Master in Corporate Finance (1 Year program, not Msc finance) and ESADE Msc Finance. I have 4 years of work experience, (capital markets&project finance) and i passed CFA level 1&2. (I am hoping to earn the credential this June)

My aim is landing an investment related job anywhere in Europe, but I will need a work visa plus I dont know any European language at Professional level.

I have heard that Bocconi has solid reputation in London, but is this limited to 2 years msc finance program? I did a little search on Linkedin and SDA Bocconi did not seem that good.

Since Netherlands is granting work visa for a certain period of time and English may be enough to work in Netherlands, I am considering University of Amsterdam too (I missed the RSM deadline) I know that Amsterdam is not respected as bocconi or esade but the I have a dilemma btw reputation and practical matters…

I am really concerned about visa issues and language, what should I do?
