When I did some research on IMD, it seems that its focus is more on Manufacturing or FMCG industry like Evian, Nestle, Shell, etc. so here are my questions regarding IMD: - Am I wrong to assume that when a person graduate from IMD cannot get into Inv-Banking jobs ? - Is it difficult to obtain jobs in Europe for Non-EU citizen ? even after obtaining MBA from IMD. Thanks.

As far as getting a job post-MBA in Europe, I'd try and feel out the admissions people at the school about that. Often schools like IMD provide networking contacts and resources for employment. But you have to realize that the job market in Europe is depressed at the moment, and even grads from these top schools might still have difficulties.
