Job in credit risk vs aggregate risk?

Hello everyone, I just wanted to know how would you choose between a job focused on credit risk (loans) and one on aggregate risk. Which one would most benefit a quantitative finance student who is looking for its first job in risk management?

Thanks a lot in advance.
