Paulson is very prestigious, but so is a "top 10 credit fund" with "greater AUM" than Paulson. Not sure who you're referring to, but any where in the top 10 (whatever that means) is by definition very prestigious. Both will look good on your resume when you leave. There's no way to predict what kind of opportunities and skills you'll get at either place until you actually go there and find out.

Go with whichever job offers more money and/or seems to have people you like more.

 

If this is real and you're enough of an idiot to identify yourself by this question, you'll fit right in at Paulson. Otherwise, the credit fund is obviously a better choice if you actually care about becoming a better investor.
