BB SA -> FT in different location

Thanks for all the wonderful advice provided on this forum.

I attend a UK top target and currently doing my IBD SA at a mid-tier BB in Hong Kong. Since I am not 100% sure where I want to start out, I am contemplating keeping my options for FT open.

That said, how are my chances for FT BB/EB in London provided I get a return offer from my current firm? How is an IB SA in HK perceived by banks in London?

Thanks.
