Citi vs. BofA IBD
I have invitations to Superdays for both Citi and Bank of America for investment banking. Both positions would be for a full-time analyst (grad) in the New York offices.
Both superdays are on the same day, so I can only go to one. If you had the chance to work at one, which would you pick and why?
Thanks
I think BofA over Citi. Also Citi's building is in a shitty location. Is BofA IBD in the new Bryant Park building? If so then that is sweet.
Group and culture matter, but generally I would go with BofA. They seem to be rebounding well and have great deal flow.
See if you can talk to HR and ask if the times of one can be changed for you. I mean it is still the same day and same city (i'm assuming both NY) but tell HR the situation about your multiple superdays. I mean i'm not in the industry but that is what i would consider doing. If the other people who are currently in the industry know better please correct me as well. thanks
Yeah def try and go to both. Why limit the probability of an offer by just going to one?
Firms usually have multiple superdays. It'd be extremely strange for them not to be able to accomodate your request for an alternate interview date.

I had my superdays for bear, citi, and ML on the say same 2-3 years ago. They reschedule both of them and paid for my flights to the offices as well ... i have never heard of them not being willing to do so.
That said, I'd do BAC over Citi if its IBD unless its group specific. Citi FIG is good
I believe some of the Citi FIG group has moved over to RBC.
Not that I'd get too excited about working at BofA, but this one's a no-brainer.

I think you may have misread the article or thread...Citi ≠ CIT
...
Jesus, low IQ move on my part.
Sorry.

BoA, but you can't go wrong with either, because a job at a BB = a job at a BB
Thanks for the advice.
It is not group specific, although you submit preferences for a group placement and superdays interviews (at least at BofA) are with those groups, from what I know.
Has anyone been through a Superday at BofA this season? Anyone willing to PM me some tips?
