Insead vs Aberdeen(Oil & Gas)

Can some one suggest attending which one of the following two schools is likely to give higher salary package:
1) Aberdeen Business School (oil & Gas)
2) Insead

Thanks and regards,

Nathan

Hi Nathan,
I work in oil & gas and have been living in Aberdeen from last 2 years. Apologies for being blunt, but, Aberdeen Business school can in no way be compared to INSEAD. To be honest, the Oil & Gas industry in Aberdeen do not hold Aberdeen Universities (both RGU & Aberdeen uni) in high regard. For tech roles, they prefer people from Herriot-watt (Edinburgh) and for management, there are people from all over. Although a fair number of people get placed at Aberdeen Business school, it is a big struggle esp with no post-study work visa. Also, as far as i know, Aberdeen Uni graduates are not considered at the same level of INSEAD, LBS, etc. (I might be wrong in this)

Hope this helps.

Regards
Chetan

Thanks Chetan.

You seem to me a person form the oil industry. Thanks for your inputs.
Are you also meaning that Insead should get preference over H-W(Edinburgh?
