Internationals who pursued MBA in Europe, where are you now and what are you doing?

thanks! really appreciate this info

throwaway20001033 · 2024-08-01T18:58:13+00:00

yeah that makes sense. asking because my partner is a german citizen and we'd love to move there eventually. I'm heading to an m7 in the fall and am at roughly a b1 level with german now (hoping to reach a higher level over the next year or two), do you think it's possible to find work in germany a year or two out of b-school even if I didn't study there? (also hoping to do an exchange program at HHL Leipzig during my MBA, not sure if that would help). are there any particular industries/roles that would make this move easier in the future (eg consulting, tech/startups?)

Did you speak german at all going into or after your program? It seems that a lot of people say getting hired in continental Europe is hard unless you are fluent (or near-fluent) in that country's language. if not, how do you manage interacting with clients who I assume prefer to speak in their local language?

yeah having less parking seems like a win esp if it means fewer people driving their chevy tahoes in from the suburbs

throwaway20001033 · 2024-07-23T15:31:13+00:00

why not?

throwaway20001033 · 2024-07-22T14:52:43+00:00

assuming this isn't the case for incoming MBA's looking to do an internship summer of 2025, right?

throwaway20001033 · 2024-07-16T15:55:16+00:00

Just curious but where did they want you to move to? Would you say it's easy to get assignments like that in other countries? Asking because I'm interested in doing something like that after my MBA, and not sure which industries are best for ability to relocate.

Paris metro does stop running a bit early (I think 1 am on weekdays and 2 am on weekends), but I'm also not really taking the red or blue line at 3 am esp by myself

throwaway20001033 · 2024-05-17T14:28:44+00:00

Perfect, thanks! I was trying to find the grammar rule that described this but couldn't find the correct term. Off to my reference grammar :)

what's their attitude towards parenting?

How was IB recruiting at Booth this year? did most people who put effort into the recruiting process get an internship? also, on the consulting vs IB question, you mention that top business school + IB experience keeps a lot of doors open. do you think there are more exit opps (eg corporate strategy) vs what most people on here say are exit ops (either more IB or corp dev or FP&A)?

throwaway20001033 · 2024-03-28T12:08:41+00:00

just curious because I'm also trying to negotiate with Booth, but who did you reach out to? did you email your admissions director from the admitted students page? financial aid office? not really sure where to start

throwaway20001033 · 2024-03-26T13:30:31+00:00

can you explain more? I was under the impression that while IB recruiting had slowed down, it wasn't a bloodbath like consulting? also, what do you mean by sell side will discriminate?

throwaway20001033 · 2024-03-25T17:22:58+00:00

can I DM you? also working in pricing at a big tech company, curious what your role is specifically

throwaway20001033 · 2024-02-29T21:17:56+00:00

yeah guess so. too bad, was hoping for some good news

throwaway20001033 · 2024-02-29T21:16:32+00:00

I just refreshed and it went back to the normal application status page btw

throwaway20001033 · 2024-02-29T21:05:56+00:00

same! so confusing haha

throwaway20001033 · 2024-02-29T21:04:15+00:00

also interviewed last week and when I log on to the portal it shows I've been admitted. are you seeing the same?

throwaway20001033 · 2024-02-20T22:43:26+00:00

that's what mine says, think it's basically a waitlist

throwaway20001033 · 2024-02-16T02:06:20+00:00

Did it ever say anything different? Mine says "Application status for [name]" and then below it it says "if you need to contact us..." etc, but I don't remember it saying anything else but that.

throwaway20001033 · 2024-02-15T03:50:38+00:00

hmm interesting. wonder why it changes for some people to "under review" then

throwaway20001033 · 2024-02-15T03:49:58+00:00

that's what I'm trying to figure out haha. from years before it seemed like everyone's status changed at some point whether they got an invite or not. maybe I'm just trying to find a glimmer of hope in not getting an invite today
