Principal Corporate Strategy/Corporate Development Internships
Sooo I randomly applied to Principal's corporate strategy group. The requisition reads as follows:
Principal Global Investors is offering an excellent opportunity for students interested in corporate strategy. This paid co-op is a full time position during the spring semester and summer of 2012. During the co-op, students will work with our Strategy team. Responsibilities will include researching potential mergers and acquisitions, analyzing financial projections, preparing presentations and other projects as needed.
I'm currently a sophomore, so this would be a co-op spring internship. Since I go to school in the city, I'm going to attempt to remain full-time by taking a few classes IF I get it. Is this worth it? I have a few boutique interviews lined up but nothing 100% yet.
Let me know





I co-opped in PGI's fixed
I co-opped in PGI's fixed income department and it was a tremendous learning experience. Learned a ton about bond trading, research, and analytics. Also made a ton of contacts with salesmen and traders at bulge bracket firms.

Do you attend NYU? I think this would be perfect since I could do it during the spring, turn down the summer 'extension' and call it a day
No, non-target, non-NY
