Very short suspense - help appreciated!

First off, I'm a 2.9 from a non-target so I get that these aren't great internship options, but they are what I have.

I have an offer from BB Ops expiring at 5PM.

I'm in the running for another BB S&T as one of two finalists. Was just told that if I don't get the S&T offer they may be able to place me in Treasury Services or Investor Services and due to the nature of the program/situation this whole process could be done by 430PM. I'm told these two groups are FO positions as well and that I could either love it there or they'd allow me to more easily move to something else.

I know NOTHING about Treasury or Investment Services! Any help is huge!! Are they true FO and is there any mobility? Imagine more than Ops??

ehhh I don't think this is a binary situation.

OP, if you have no other options, ANY job is better than NO job. my suggestion would be to start looking for boutiques, as centralpark suggested. but by no means should you hold out for something that may or may not happen. I agree it'll be hard to go from BO to FO, but it's harder to go from unemployment to FO.

 

Thanks for the input guys. Really helps especially considering New England just got nailed with a hefty storm and I'm sitting here in the dark without power trying to last minute research off my phone before it dies. But hey that's how it goes.

These both are vet programs and I'm being told that if s&t falls through I could probably be placed in treasury services before the day's end. I'm guessing certain teams were supposed to sponsor vets and theirs either fell through or the guy I'm up against right now is choosing between the two and has first preference. I'd likely have to do a phone screen, but that's it. Sounds crazy I know but what I'm being told.

Am I getting jerked around when told TS is FO or is it definitely an easier place to move around from? I ask because if it's essentially in par with Ops the other bank has at least a stronger name.
