ESADE or RSM

by NikPo » Tue Apr 15, 2014 7:09 am
Hello,

how do you evaluate those those programs(both with the CEMS option)in terms of employment opportunities and repuation? The salary after graduation is said to be higher at RSM, but the courses at ESADE are much more interesting and the school seems to have a better reputation(at least for MBA's)

Any comments would be much appreciated.

Best regards

Hi Nik,

RSM is the best business school in Holland (a relatively strong economy) while ESADE is among the top 4 business schools in Spain (an economy in deep trouble).

MBA programs at both these schools are relatively similar but it depends on what you want to achieve from your MBA and which part of the world you are from. If you are a Non-European, an Asian or an American, who wishes to work in Europe after the MBA, try avoiding ESADE. If you are from Europe, choose the one which has better electives suiting your aspirations.

Hope it helps.
