Choosing among the FT unranked


Hi, would appreciate your advice for programme that offered to me. They are:
- Henley Full Time MBA
- Sheffield Full-Time MBA
- Bradford MSc in International Business and Management Univ of Bradford

My goal is to be able to work and live in UK/EU.

You might say, "choose the better school from FT list" or "wait for the next intake", but for some reason, I have to attend one of mentioned programme by this September.

Kindly advise the closest school to my need.
Thank you in advance.

I'm currently holding marketing position in pharmaceutical MNC. Would be great if I could have global executive position for commercial role in FMCG or pharma (e.g. Global/Regional Brand Director position), however having career in UK/EU at proper level for MBA graduate should be satisfactory for me.

Pharma sounds like the Thames Valley so Reading, but you know how bad the careers services are there. You will need to network very heavily. A January start is out for you... maybe Brunel?

Yes, Reading sounds like better option but the career service reputation concerns me much. Do you think that Sheffield has better career service?
Will dig more info for Brunel.

I could not honestly say that Sheffield has good careers services, but Henley is weak. Why not try EDHEC's January entry? There is a huge amount of pharma in that region around Nice, Grenoble, Lyon, Geneva etc.

Not into French school because I assume that language barrier would be an issue to work around there. But I heard that looking for a job in EU is easier than in UK, is that right?

Finding a job from ranked school is easier.EDHEC outcomes are better even if you don't speak French. Edhec has a campus im London too, so there is a good network.

Update: I received offers from Birmingham and Strathclyde, so I think I'll go with Strathclyde.
