Back office full time offer vs Front office SA offer

Hi guys, if you receive a back office full time offer and a front office summer analyst offer in the upcoming year, which option will you choose?

If you choose front office SA offer, you will need to give up the back office offer due to time clash and you will need to fight for conversion for a full time job.

Any thought will be highly appreciated!

FO SA. Also, the "fight" for a FT offer isn't as intense IMO. You're already halfway there, you just need to keep on doing good work, which I assume you've done since you were able to get the SA offer.
