what is the best choice for SA in Sales and Trading?
Not really interested in fixed income, so feedback from an equities perspective would be appreciated. Also, looking to maximize chances for a FT offer. Thanks!

BAML easy.
I would not take advice on this forum unless it's by certified users, so many people think of S&T banks based on their IBD reputation so it's hard to get accurate advice here. I have no idea, but just a word of warning
depends----if ur big on fx-----or in rates----than deutsche hands down if ur possibly into mortgages----or high yield----than i would choose baml
if ur uncertain between these -- think about if u like more macro focused economic things---like fx or rates versus analyzing balance sheets----looking at individual companies----more characteristic of high yield
i think its pretty easy to narrow between these two---- baml has a nicer office and is in midtown db is cramped and has these insanely bright white lights on the floor ( seriously a concern as I've been on both---and u need to make sure ur comfortable there working for 12 hours a day)
but for equities then baml because it has the stronger division one of the few banks that actually has a specialist post at the nyse
good luck
BAML for equities, high yield BNPP for fixed income derivatives / exotics DB for fx and credit trading WF is not in London
Thanks so much for your comments. Do you think this is true of both Sales and Trading? I'm really interested at least in exploring exploring equities trading but if not, think Research Sales would be great as well.
BNPP is by far the best followed by WF
