Corporate Banking Exit Ops

Hi!

I'm currently a final year student at university, with a grad role in corporate banking at a BB (JPM/BofA/Citi etc).

I know I could only do CB for 2-3 years max before getting bored, so I'm just wondering where people normally exit to.

I'm looking for something with a bit more responsibility/intellectual stimulation. Would it be possible to exit to private credit/consulting if I take a masters in finance/economics after 2-3 years in corporate banking?

thanks in advance!
