Le Parisien has updated its annual ranking of grandes ecoles. The top five schools are the same, but this year EDHEC, which for a long time was 5th, is now joint third. Skema has also had a good few years (compare for example 2011 https://find-mba.com/board/europe/2012-french-b-school-ranking-from-challenges-19783).

School Rank 2018 Points
HEC 1 74
Essec Business School 2 73
Edhec Business School 3 71
EM Lyon 3 71
ESCP Europe 3 71
Grenoble School of Management 6 68
Skema Business School 6 68
Audencia Nantes 8 66
Kedge 8 66
Neoma 10 64
TBS - Toulouse Business School 10 64

Because this ranking reflects French interests, it hasn't captured IESEG's remarkable internationalisation fully. It has grown both foreign faculty and foreign students, but it doesn't look as if that is making an impact on the labour market.

Thanks for the info. I am currently exploring IESEG as an option for my MBA but as well I am considering EMLYON. It's interesting that you say that IESEG has been internationalizing and I am wondering if this school is the best bet for me considering I am looking not to stay in France long term but only to work there for a year or two and then return home. What advice do you suggest?

EMLyon is a better school in every way. I can't see any reason to consider IESEG as an alternative. The fact that it is good at recruiting foreign students doesn't mean that students are better at finding work as a result.
