Is it ture that 80% of the companies recruting from a European B-school will have opportunities in Europe only. Can you throw some more light on this subject. I plan to do my MBA from Europe b/c their programs are only 1 yr compared to 2 yr programs here in US. Also, how effective are the 1 yr programs in Europe

I'm afraid I'm getting outside of my knowledge zone. We focused <i>Your MBA Game Plan</i> mainly on U.S. schools since we don't know European or Asian schools nearly as well. So, I can't specifically address the European one-year programs.
But more generally, in the U.S., I think that one-year programs are considered a good alternative to their two-year counterparts. The assumption that most companies (and schools) will have is that you'd only apply to these programs if you have a minimum amount of business training and experience. Assuming that you do have this, then a one-year program is fine.
