Hi everyone. I wanted some help with selecting a university to apply to for an M.Sc. Finance or MiF program. This is for the 2021/22 admission cycle.
Due to a low GPA(6.5/10) in my B.Sc. Mathematics program, I am discarding the top tier institutes from my list. But I have a very high GMAT to show (770).
The only other interesting element in my CV is a published research paper.
I do not have any work experience nor do I have any volunteering experience.
Sports only at school level, not national.I will be starting a 6 month research assistantship in the month of August.
Add to all this, I am from India.
Keeping all this in mind, how feasible is it for me to land a job within 3 months of my masters' graduation?
The main issue is selecting the country of study.
From what I've heard, places like Australia have had a history of having unemployed Australian Finance postgraduates, let alone foreigners. France and Ireland have had some issues with giving EU students preference over non EU students.
Also the language barrier in most European countries could be an issue. I am fluent in English and can speak acceptable German.
Sorry for the long post but any help with this would be much appreciated. If you want to share your experiences, please do so.
Note: All the above issues about the respective countries are from opinions of students currently studying there whom I've contacted. If you have any contrasting knowledge, do let me know.
Thank You.
