Top Business Schools for Employability in Banking

Of the almost 2,000 banking professionals we surveyed this summer, only 8.8 percent said location was a major factor in their decision to join their firm.  For prospective MBAs, location plays a much bigger role–not only when choosing a business school, but also when considering prospective employers at graduation.  A whopping 79 percent of business school students we surveyed in May told us that location influenced their decision to attend a particular school.  And if you want to pursue a career in finance, location should play a major role in your business school decision, too.

New York City is the home of investment banking and most other financial services, so it should come as no surprise that it’s the home of the best business schools for employability in banking.  Columbia Business School and NYU Stern School of Business are No. 1 and No. 2 in New York City, as well as in the Northeast and nationally.  NYU Stern even scores the No. 1 spot in San Francisco and No. 3 in the West.  Columbia also makes it into the Top 5 in the Midwest and Southeast.

How important is business school prestige in banking employability?
But don’t think you won’t get anywhere in finance without a NYC MBA.  The finance industry is not as geographically focused as the legal industry and lacks the prestige obsession of consulting.  Aside from the broad geographic reach of New York schools, employment patterns in finance show a slight regional tilt.  In each region, a local school is No. 1 in our employability rankings.

Location, location, location
Major cities are even more regional than regions.  In Los Angeles, for example, the Top 3 schools are Wharton, UCLA Anderson and University of Arizona’s Eller College of Management.  Even in San Francisco, NYU Stern ties for the No. 1 spot with UCLA Anderson and Wharton.  In fact, in all major cities, the No. 1 business school for employment in banking is located within city limits.

So where should you go to business school if you want to pursue a career in banking?  Obviously, an MBA program in New York City or a top-ranked program like HBS or UChicago Booth will get you there.  But if you can’t or don’t get into Columbia or NYU Stern, it’s wise to consider where you want to work after graduation.  Earning your MBA at a top school located in the city where you want to work will provide the leg up you need to get a job in a top firm.  Truth be told, going to school in the city where you want to work is a smart move in any industry.  Alumni networks are very strong close to campus, meaning you’ll have ins with tons of local professionals.  Schools also often have very good relationships with employers close to campus, meaning you’ll have many options when it comes time for on-campus interviews.  Moreover, interning during the school year is easier because you’re a local student and a great in to a potential employer, as you’ll be able to show your commitment to working in the city and with that firm.
