So I had to choose for FT amongst, and I chose Citi. But now I look back and feel I should've evaluated my offers a bit more.
Since there nothing I can change now, I guess I gotta stick with Citi and hopefully have a decent exit opp.

You did fine
theres no need to go back and have others confirm or discredit your decision...its not something you need. your decision was fine. look forward, not backward-theres nothing you can do now, and no good can come from second guessing your decision
Agreed. No reason to ask yourself "what-ifs" now.
It'd be between Citi and BlackRock for me.
BlackRock
Thanks a lot for the comments. Although I've searched the forums a lot, I couldn't find any answer specific to Citi CMO. What are the typical exit opportunities after Citi CMO, considering I'm thinking of working in either Derivative Solutions or Securitized Products. I've heard the structuring done in CMO is not a transferable skill to hedge funds, but not sure if it's entirely true. Here are the groups they have. Which one do you guys think would give me the best exit opp if I want to work at a hedge fund, doing either research/trading/structuring.
Asset Based Finance Derivatives Solutions Equity Capital Markets Financial Institutions Fixed Income Capital Markets Global Fixed Income New Products Global Loans Capital Markets Global Loans Capital Markets – Latin America Global Structured Loans Industrial Fixed Income Capital Markets Leveraged Finance Liability Management Global Securitized Products

RBC and RBS are pure crap so elminate.
BlackRock is pure crap too except high level phd quant portfolio manager.
u didnt' get that so i guess Citi was ur best choice.
try to transfer to IBD.
Citi capital markets is ABSOLUTE CRAP AND ALL PRICING LOLOLOL
That was hilarious. I'm typing whilst rolling on the floor cracking up.
RBC is awesome.
But would it provide the same exit opps at as a BB? I'm really interested in working at a hedge fund eventually. I tried for Asset Management jobs, but could only get this BlackRock one and a few at small firms for research. Couldn't get into trading.
