I'm currently entering my junior year or college and I received an offer for public finance investment banking at a bulge bracket bank. It isn't traditional investment banking, but I was wondering if it would help increase my chances of getting an offer at MBB? If not, do you think I'd be better off looking for other internships/which ones?
Thank you Francesco! As of right now, I don't have any alternatives, but it's really early in the recruiting period; I haven't even gotten the chance to recruit for SA positions at any consulting companies or strategy roles for big brands. I feel like if I recruited for an alternative that you listed I would probably be able to get one in the fall, so I guess the question is whether to play it safe and take the JP job or try to go for a consulting/F500 SA position in the spring. Another primary concern I have is the whole Public Finance part - again it is investment banking, but a more niche position so I'm not sure how the position is received by MBB.
