Which looks better in terms of training, desks, exit opps, culture, blah blah...?
I landed offers from both and am curious which I should take. Thanks.
EDIT: which of the above and MS FI and DB S&T should I take?






BofA is better than CIti

The decision is between DB
The decision is between DB and Citi. I think Citi is the top choice since the program is rotational and they are probably stronger in a greater number of groups, although DB is known to allow it's traders to take a lot of directional risks. DB is also a solid choice and no one can fault you for picking it over Citi. I think the question comes down to who you connected with more.

Do you want to work in UK or NY? That will answer your question
The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee

Some people might say crazy, I would have gone the other way, but you chose that decision for a reason. In the words of Paul Arden, "if it wasn't the right decision, you would have made a different one"
