You describe a wide range of roles, and I'm not really sure what you describe as the big four (I think the big four are the four large accounting firms, but you are perhaps not focussed on them).
The best roles go to the most valuable students: they are the ones with the highest capability, the best German-language skills, and the most experience. Generally speaking, those are in the best schools, because the best students understand the need to invest in the best experience, so they can get the best internships, career services and education.
You can use Xing and LinkedIn to see where the graduates of various programmes end up. German students graduating from the top English-language degrees are very well placed. However, foreigners struggle to develop high German-language skills and that, in turn, limits their ability to gain good internships and entry-level positions.
The FT MiF rankings and the German CHE rankings are great tools here.
Generally, good advice here would be:
- If you do not speak and write professional German, to attend a state university DSH course then take a MSc degree taught in German at a state university.
- if you do speak and write German at a high professional level, to take the MIF at WHU or Frankfurt.
