Hello,
I am interested in the feedback from current students or alumni or anyone who heard something about SDA Bocconi. I heard that the school is good, but it all comes down to one thing-a job opportunity after the graduation. I am specifically interested in MBA in Brand Management, but would appreciate a feedback from students with other concentrations. I just want to know if its as good as it sounds. I was also looking into HEC and ESSEC, but my heart belongs to Italy. I know both Italian and French, so language will not be a problem. However, I am from the US so I know I will have to obtain a work permit. Please advise and thank you very much in advance!

Take a read through this:

You won't find many students or alumni on this board: it's for applicants.

I am neither a student nor an alumni, but as a German living in London SDA is the only MBA from Italy I ever heard of. So I would assume that it is top notch in Italy and well respected within Europe.

Thank you for the answers and your time. I do know it is hard to obtain a work permit in Europe, but I dont think its impossible. I know a few people who graduated from Italian universities with Masters and were able to get a work permit.

Having a distinctive background can be a winning factor with multinational companies, especially in posts that require direct contact with the participant's country of origin.

Wouldnt the name like Bocconi invite some good multinational companies in Italy to offer a job to their graduates? (Ofcourse after Interviewing and screening the candidate). If the graduate from a school like Bocconi is a good fit, wouldnt the company's sponsorship help get a visa?

If a multinational is hiring in Italy then they would almost always hire someone with fluent Italian. It's unlikely - very unlikely - that a non-EU person without perfect Italian gets hired in Italy at the MBA level.
