Business Schools in Europe

by Giorgio » Wed May 20, 2009 12:02 am
Hello Stacy ,

I have researched the forum and could not find much about business schools in Europe.

I am planing to apply for fall 2010 admissions. My target schools are :

LBS, INSEAD, IE , IESE , ESADE, SAID and JUDGE...

I Have several questions about my target schools,

LBS - of course it is my top choice and dream school, but what are employment opportunities for international students ?do they allow you to stay in the country and work after graduating it?


My 2nd target schools are in Spain , IE, IESE and ESADE . I am non Spanish speaker, not even at the beginner level... I have heard that it is extremely hard to find job after graduating them if you are not fluent in Spanish ... and i doubt to be fluent ,even tough they are encouraging to take intensive Spanish courses during the study . can you comment on this?

My profile :

By fall 2010 ill be:

Age : 23
Full time working experience of 4.5 year, of Which 2 year during my 3rd and 4th year of BBA.
Including :
1 Year in construction company as financial manager.
Worked for an year in one of the largest international bank as a Specialist.
and for the last 1.5 year I am working as a Trader In the largest bank in my country... I've been recently promoted to managerial level , meaning an increase in my responsibilities.

My Undergrad GPA is 2.8 ( ouch) , It was caused by full time employment while being a student.

I am working hard right now to score high in GMAT, my target range is 720-750.

Dear Giorgio,

In order to get answers to your questions on specific schools, I encourage you to visit these schools' websites, speak with their admissions representatives, and speak with current students/alumni of these programs. Additionally, visiting the campuses is a great way to gain insight into a school and whether or not it will meet your criteria for where you want to go to business school.

Good luck,
Lisa
