Boeing Finance Internship

Either way you should take the Boeing offer. You can always renege on Boeing if you do get a consulting offer - if not, Boeing is a great company and you should be more than happy to work there for a summer.

Not sure what position you are in to accept the offer and then renege on it (at my school its HIGHLY discouraged, they'll disconnect you from career services, on campus interviews etc). My gut feeling is that Boeing will neither help or hurt your chances if you have all the other necessaries (gpa, ECs, etc) The question is, do you think you will be able to get an interview come next fall? If you can get an interview, and be able to prep for cases this spring and summer, then taking the Boeing gig may be your best bet, otherwise hold out for something else in the spring.

I'm confident in my ability to get interviews come next fall, so I'm leaning towards taking Boeing.

.

One, caveat. Is your school a target for full time consulting recruiting? If not, start planning your networking strategy soon.

Boeing internship is a slight positive as it is a large, well known, and fairly well regarded company vs. average run of the mill internships out there.

It's somewhat target... (BCG, Bain, LEK, but no McK).

Anyway, looks like it'll be Boeing, unless someone convinces me otherwise in the next few days. That way I can focus on case prep before next fall and really knock the ball out of the park.

Hmm... very good point.
