Should I keep looking for a sophomore internship?

Hey team.
I just got called by Citadel today; after being on their post-superday waitlist for about a month, I finally got dinged. This leaves me with a PNC Risk gig which I am frankly not too excited about. Should I continue searching for internships or just be glad that I have anything this sophomore summer and accept the offer? It expires in 3 weeks so if I start the process with any firm the offer will almost certainly expire.

Привет.

Just curious, what kind of risk (Market/Credit) is this?

Yo (yeah, I'm that kind of euroazn.)

The worst part is that I don't think it'll be either. Those are the divisions I expressed interest in, and as a math major with good background figured I'd get, but they might be shoving me straight into a compliance-risk style role.

3 weeks.

If I were you, I would definitely keep looking for other internship opportunities. However, if there wont be anything in 3 weeks, I'd go ahead and take it.

Good luck, buddy.
