Career Advice For Fresh Graduate In Banking / Consulting / Crypto VC!🙏🏻

Hi all, I'm currently graduated from a top university in Taiwan, I had some internship background in retail banking at tier 1 banks, student project experience at MBB, and corporate strategy / VC experience in a global crypto exchange.

Would love to hear your advice on the job options.

1) Management associate at a top retail bank (return offer extended)

2) VC analyst at a top 5 crypto quant trading firm (return offer extended)

3) Strategy analyst at a global crypto exchange (return offer extended)

4) Go to one of the companies listed above first and pursue a junior position at tier 1 consulting firms, could apply for next year's program but it's quite difficult in my country with only very few headcounts opened.

Would love to hear some advice from you in terms of which one to choose and suggestions on career planning, that would be very helpful for me, thanks!
