PJT RSSG vs MF PE Analyst

Currently trying to decide where to re-recruit during the summer. Will be interning at a top BB (GS/MS/JP) and looking to go into a top SM HF like the Tiger Cubs eventually. I know BX PE would be the ideal situation, but if I don't get that I'm not sure which one is better between PJT RSSG and top MF PE analyst programs outside of BX (think SL/Vista/Apax). Any thoughts?

So you don't even have the offers yet?🤡🤡🤡

 

I knew I would get this response. No, I don't have the offers, but the whole point is that I make this decision in advance, as I won't have time to consult WSO if I actually get the offers. Also, if I decide that one of these is inferior to what I currently have, it doesn't make sense to spend time recruiting there, so that's another reason to ask early.

If you don't like the BB program you should also try EVR/HL RX - every year you see people doing jump top BB SA there FT. If you're actually interested in RX, just applying to PJT gives you too little chances just based on randomness of the process
