Obviously it is always better to be situated in the area that you are applying jobs for. But offices (applies to IB) would have been a lot more comfortable with video interviews due to covid. Maybe they might maintain that type of flexibility for future.
Importance of networking or those information sessions and coffee chat is arguable. You can get interviews without impressing people via networking. At least that was how it is in my time, and I doubt it changes a lot.
Not sure how well those schools that you mentioned stack in terms of preference for IB interviews. I think they are ok. It is not like SG business schools are that hard to get in nowadays. 10th percentile is apparently BBB for
NTU/
SMU? GPA (for first internship) and internships and other stuff are more important.
