Hi, everyone,
I am in a wierd dilemna. My options in the US are UMass Boston, Kelstadt Depaul, Global Partners program at Georgia State and Baruch CUNY Zicklin. Out of the options I have in the US, I have shortlisted Baruch CUNY.
SDA Bocconi seems to be a far better program as compared to Baruch CUNY but I am just worried about the employment opportunities. I am from India and I do not speak Italian, I am aware that this puts me at a major disadvantage for employment in Italy.
Post MBA, my goal is to work for a top tier consulting firm. While these firms hire from SDA , language will be a big barrier for me (They seem to be very specific about hiring candidates who know Italian). These firms do not seem to hire at all from any of the US universities, I've gotten into. Even with the current economic situation in Europe, should I still go ahead with SDA because of the reputation of the program (something that will stay on CV forever) as compared to Baruch CUNY (which might be a safer option, comparatively, because US provides a lot more employment opportunities).
Also, SDA has an exchange program with some of the top schools in US. How realistic is it to expect that I'd be able to use that (2 months in US) effectively to pursue employment opportunities in the US? Or even apply directly after graduation to firms in the US without taking the exchange program?
Thanks!
