I am software team leader working in the automotive industry since 7 years , currently I am looking to make a career shift to consultancy or business development in europe or Dubai.
I have an international experience, I worked in 3 different countries , two in Europe and one in middle east.
I scored 630 in GMAT

I have been in contact with IMD and IESE , they have made a profile assessment and they indicated that there is an initial fit between my profile and the universities. I believe that they are great universities but I am concerned regarding two points:
1) the size of their networks in the middle east?
2) the price and fees specially that I am planning to take a loan (I believe as well that economy now is not in its best position because of covid 19)
for example I found in case of IMD , I will need to pay around 1200 usd monthly for 10 years for prodigy finance
to be honest I would prefer IMD because of the shorter duration.

because of the fees issues, I started to consider another universities.
I got in contact with RSM , Imperial , Cass , Manchster, warwick.
After comparison :I felt that I would be more interested in RSM or Manchster because of their internship options.


I have another option as well , I am currently living in Munich and Iese is providing new EMBA in Munich , I can apply to it and continue working that will decrease the burden of the fees.However I am not sure if the emba at IESE will help me to do the career shift
