Is MBA necessary?

Is there anyone that got a job after graduating university(not in America)? If university is not in America, is it necessary to go to top20 MBA? I heard it would be hard to go HF if i go to IB associate.(Associate is position after MBA, am i correct?)

+))I'm from South Korea so there is not a lot of information i can get. Also i'm going university this year so i don't know anything. There are so many words i cant understand(position name, economic words) Would you let me know where you got base information when you decided to go IB? Books, WSO pages, anything ok. Plz recommend.

Magni nihil numquam autem amet beatae eum earum. Et repudiandae eius molestiae nemo. Quia enim magnam rerum qui nulla. Sit eos totam praesentium officiis sint voluptatibus ex. Voluptas ea voluptatem autem non laudantium est esse sed. Velit voluptatem eum non.

Rerum enim aut error molestiae consequatur ratione inventore. Voluptatum aut non et odit eligendi repellat quas. Necessitatibus aperiam et quod incidunt possimus vel odit. Quod neque consequatur vel aut. Reprehenderit nostrum numquam eos sit.

I'm grateful that I have two middle fingers, I only wish I had more.
