Assuming I have offers for both, which is the better opportunity?
Thinking in terms of exit opps, reputation/prestige, business school placement, income potential, and overall culture.

Hi there!
Both are great, especially if you are just entering the industry.
I personally would lean towards the former since it has more of an international network and brand.
If you're starting soon in consulting, these two guides are going to be useful in turning you into a distinctive consultant in your first year:

Congrats on the offers!
Best,

Hello,
Both opportunities are great – I don’t think there’s one objectively best option, it depends more on what you are looking for. If you are looking for a career in consulting, OW might be a more relevant entry point. If you are interested in financial services, Cap One might be better suited for that. Additionally, talk to people in both offices about what the job is like, what office culture is like, etc., to determine which would be a better fit for you personally.
Hi there,
Figure out your values and what you want overall….then figure out which offer fits.
Also, don't “assume”. If you don't have offers, don't think about this yet (it's wasted effort and energy).
If you do have both offers, first, negotiate! Then, from there, if you want a career in Consulting, OW would be better. If you want a career in more of the financial space, Capital One would be better (only speaking on prestige/career progression)
