I am a sophomore at a Canadian target trying to decide whether to accept a Commercial Banking summer internship offer at a megacap bank regional office. It pays well, but it mainly encompasses working as an Associate Commercial Account Manager with limited analytical work.
Should I be going for unpaid internships at boutique IBs, or could I potentially spin this for IBD recruiting in the fall?
