Hi fellow hongkonger! 
I m just not sure about my odds of switching from finance to fintech after imperial. I see some mba grads, even those from Insead ended up looking for the same type of jobs in the same region after graduation this year.
I m determined to do mba but if i m paying so much for a course that very likely will be held online 1/4 or half of the time, i hope its at least worth it - opening the the doors of the opportunities that i intend to pursue.
Are u planning to work in hk or overseas after mba?
Thank you for the support! And congrats on getting admitted![/quote]
Its so nice to finally hear from a hongkonger on this page
Im not familiar with the industry you’re in , but what I think is, MBA programme would definitely open more opportunities for you and there would be a higher chance to change the field upon graduation, so I guess the problem is just whether it is that cost-effective with the Imperial’s tuition fee?
If talking about changing field, I believe a strong career team from college is really important to help out, especially during this difficult time. And Imperial has the advantage on this in my point of view. Well of course Kellogg and Insead is also great and their brand can help you in job hunting.
I target to stay in UK after graduate, I work in energy industry and there is not much opportunities in HK, so I would try my best to stay haha.[/quote]
That makes sense! I m hoping I could land a job in the tech sector after MBA but if I see landing a job in PE/ VC would help pursue my long term goal in the tech sector as well.
I m still waiting for the final decision from Kellogg (but expect that to come in a few days and I need to decide pretty much within days as the classes will start on 20 Jul - they are superrrr slow) and I won't hear from INSEAD on interview decision until the end of the month.
Given the current political sentiment and frequent changes on US visa approval policies, I m not quite sure about going to Kellogg. And INSEAD's competition is really tough this year ... if I got denied by INSEAD after rejecting Kellogg and Imperial's offer, I will be left with nothing this year
...
It is great you have made up your mind. Now everything to me has become more complicated because of COVID.
