Hi guys,
My goal is to land a MBB offer in Switzerland (Geneva or Zurich).
I speak English (C1) and Spanish (native). I’ll do a Master in Finance at IE (April 2026 intake), with a little bit of luck and discipline I’ll get the CFA Level II passed, FMVA and I’m confident I can land an internship at a good boutique asset management firm in Spain. I want to ask the following questions:
- First the language, how much more challenging will it become without French and German
- How do Swiss offices see IE Business School and the IE MiF
- I know the CFA is not meant for strategy consulting, but I hope it isn’t worthless? What do you think?
- I also know that my profile is really finance heavy. Would that become a bad thing? What other thing (besides networking and case prep) should I do to increase my chances?
Sorry for the long text. I really appreciate it.
