When does ER make sense?

Asking specifically for L/S exits, when does taking up an ER grad offer make sense?

I interned in BB ER this summer but will be going to one of the platform hedge funds full-time via their training program (Citadel Associate Programme etc) and was curious if ER is a better training ground under specific circumstances (and specific analysts).

Specifically, if you're interested in something more specialised like biotech, pharmaceuticals, FIG, etc. Not sure if the accelerated undergrad training programs at the MMHF's equip you with the skillset for some sectors?

Ducimus non omnis tempora consequatur. Iste asperiores iste quaerat ut. In nam culpa sequi.
