Hi everyone,
I am planning to do my masters in finance after a year. I am in my last year of college (majoring in accounts) and since i do not have any internship experience, I have decided to take a gap year. Can someone please advise the nature of work experience that'll be valued by top European schools (esp. HEC) offering pre-experience Msc. Finance ?

Hi, most of the MS programmes don't require experience. If you have a relevant experience it will be added advantage to your profile. At the same please look into some volunteer experiences also. It will boost to profile.
As I don't have any internship experience throughout my under-graduation (was doing a professional course alongside) so I think that maybe some work exp. will improve my competitiveness. Thanks for the advice on volunteering, will keep it in mind

Hi.
I can potentially offer some advice here, I was provisionally admitted to the MIF.
I had an internship at a big Investment Bank in the UK (think GS, MS, JPM), as a Corporate Analyst - this has done me well in all applications as experience and a topic of conversation, and HEC did ask numerous questions about it. I also had a couple of months as a teaching assistant in Statistics and Probability for first and second year students at my university. Finally, had a couple of years as a part-time database administrator (excel guy, basically) in a couple of local companies.
No problem! Should have made clear also that I'm in my final year of University, so no full-time post-college experience at all. That hasn't affected my applications one bit.
Good luck
