BAML or TD

Hey guys, just wanted to get your opinion on which one of the two programs would be overall better in terms of learning experience, resume, job security and exit opportunities. Would you rather do BAML Cap Mkt - DCM or TD Securities sales and trading? I had a better time with the guys from TD for my interviews so I am slightly in favor of them myself, but just wanted to get the market opinion on this. Also the position at TD would be a traditional S&T deal rather than somewhat of a hybrid group at BAML.

Thanks,

Sounds like you have already made your decision. They are totally different roles, you need to figure out what you like more. I wouldn't look at it from a job security prospective at all.
