Hi everyone, I am currently applying for summer Internships in London and wanted to weigh up two potential choices. First, is the role of Strategy Analyst at Capital One. Second, is the role of strategy consultant at OC&C.
I would like to know your views on which one is better across a range of metrics you think are important. But things like a) prestige, brand name b) ability to move into MBB c) how good it looks on CV d) the type of skills you would develop and to whom they would be more attractive for.
I understand that it is ultimately up to personal preference, but I would love to hear your thoughts on which one is preferable. Also, how would that decision change if I also had an offer from Oliver Wyman? Would that then be the most preferable?
Lastly, if I want to do strategy consulting as a full-time position, which role will seem more attractive to other Tier 2 and MBB firms.
2) Aside from strategy consulting, could you give examples of roles I would be well-positioned for with my Cap 1 internship when I apply for grad schemes? Doesn't have to be consulting specific but just what type of roles exist out there that I could position myself well for
