Bocconi job prospects

Hi I am an international student applying to Bocconi's BESS program. Someone at my dad's office told him that bocconi does not place well. This is contrary to what I have read about bocconi on various forums and websites. Therefore, I wanted to know what the job prospects would be with a BESS degree from bocconi. Additionally, will it help my chances to get into a top graduate school?

I would be cautious about doing a bachelor’s in Europe as an international student. Recruiting is typically done at the master’s level. A bachelor’s degree at a top European school is very difficult and getting the grades to get into the corresponding master’s program will require you to be a killer academically.

Bocconi has historically placed very well in IB in London. S&T not so much.

 

I think Bocconi's MSc offered many more traders that other top graduate school. Am I wrong?
