LinkedIn is really your friend. It's not very likely that this would lead to PE, because they will hire people who are better networked and are in more selective programmes.

Looking at MSc graduates of the TUD, using LinkedIn, it seems that the school does not place well into finance and accounting. You can do this analysis yourself very easily.

I am not sure why you think that programme is well ranked by the CHE. I looked at the CHE ranking for VWL MSc and TUD doesn't seem to be above average https://www.daad.de/en/study-and-research-in-germany/plan-your-studies/che-university-ranking/?che-subject-id=27&che-university-type-id=&che-degree-id=4&che-a=ranking-list&che-indicator%5B%5D=693&che-indicator%5B%5D=458&che-indicator%5B%5D=457&che-indicator%5B%5D=34&che-indicator%5B%5D=35&che-sort=458
