Accepted B4 offer but landed interview at BB corp banking, need advice
Hey guys,
Im from a super non target and I was fortunate enough to receive and accept a B4 offer that rotates in audit and accounting advisory for their deals team. However, i networked like a monkey on crack and got interviews at a lower BB in their corporate banking division for an analyst training program, as well as a Big 3 credit agency for their rotation program.
I know it depends on my goals, and I want to break into IB. After that, I'm not 100% sure. Corp dev, PE, private credit, corp finance, or staying in IB all seem interesting at this point but im not too picky or set on one exit.
These are just interviews, so I dont want to fuck up what I already have. Looking for guidance on if I should pursue these interviews and if theres a chance I could get caught and lose my offer. This is for next year btw.
If you ultimately want to land an analyst spot, go with the CB role. It'll prepare you better and more importantly it'll make it easier to lateral internally to any coverage roles that open up. Most banks would prefer to pull internally to fill a spot than externally (dependent on circumstance of course).
Big 4 sucks. 'nuff said. Accountants used to be the old investment bankers but I expect you'll have so much more growth opportunities and interesting exit opps with the BB offer. You can 100% reneg, you're just another number to them anyways. Friends of mine in the Big 4 say sometimes there's not even enough desks for Staff 1 and 2, that's how replaceable you are at a Big 4 firm. I can't say much on Corp Banking but I'm going to take a guess that compensation is much better and you'll be a lot more respected as a human being.
YES you should pursue the interview. Audit is not great, and accounting advisory is audit
