Are these mainland EU firms big recruiters from the schools you mention? I see on LikedIn that they don't do a lot of product management in the UK, but more often in Germany, the USA or China.

Thanks Duncan,

Should I look more option in German school or something like Netherland? I can start preparing the German language now.

Anyway, I forgot to mention that for long term I would come back to work in my home country.

If you have the goal to be a product manager in those firms then perhaps a year in a intensive German or French course will be more useful than a management degree. Do your research or hire an advisor familiar with those markets.
