LBS MiM vs St. Gallen SIM [#permalink] New post   23 May 2014, 05:35
Hi everyone,

I recently got admitted both from London Business School - Master in Management and St. Gallen - Strategy and International Management programs.

Doing research on the internet and talking to graduates did not really help me to reach a decision, so I wanted to get your views on how to decide.

I know that has a great worldwide reputatation but St. Gallen has really good rankings and employment reports look better. Additionally, all I'm hearing from everyone studying in London is that it's close to impossible to secure a competitive job in the management consulting industry (which I want to work in) there, even if you're from the top universities.

Btw, I'm Turkish / German, and bot both my English and German are good enough to work in both countries, so language barriers would not be an issue.

Thanks for your feedback!

Check the respective employment informations. SIM gives its salary, which is pretty impressive; LBS is not so much. Their placements are okay, and as you mentioned, the UK is hypercompetitive. I would pick HSG given you're fluent in German. What's the deal with citizenship though? I've heard both the UK and Switzerland are not very accommodating to non-EU citizens in finding jobs.

I have German, dual citizenship, so working permits shouldn't be a problem.

I guess you're right about the employment reports. HSG is really impressive in that aspect.

Where exactly can I find detailed employment reports for the SIM? LBS has this information easily accessible on their website, but I can't seem to find it for HSG.
