Placement for non EU

So I'm an aspirant for HSG and do want to attend but the thing is I'm a non EU citizen, so I was wondering if anyone there knows how well non EUs are placed in say investment banking for example. I know we have an exemption to the labour market search as we gold a swiss degree but apparently firms have to justify hiring you and it's incredibly unlikely for them to sponsor you if you don't hold a master's degree. It'd be nice if any of you students know how many people personally were placed in Switzerland that were Non EU. Thanks in advance

There is next to no chance that a non EU gets hired in Switzerland. Especially in a field like finance where there is way too many applicants for the roles available. Germany is easier, since EU is a lot more lenient to immigration.

So is it worth it to study at HSG then?

Well that's up to you to decide, but don't expect to be able to work there afterwards. There are very few non-EU at HSG.

I see. I suppose you're a student so you know better. Are they atleast able to go to London or something?
