Goal is to recruit full-time for IB, which offer should I take for my jr summer?

Currently a junior (class of 2027) with offers for credit risk (Asset managers coverage on levfin/high-yield side) at a top BB and ER (software coverage) at a MM, both in NYC. Is it feasible to recruit IB full-time, and if so which offer gives me a better chance of doing so?

“Easily the most helpful mentor and favorite person I have worked with by far. Was extremely responsive in the slack messaging, working around me, asked for some of my past materials so that he could prepare beforehand, and during the call, really helped walk through everything I was struggling with. Ultimately, came out of the call significantly more prepared and confident then beforehand. Michael was an overall excellent head mentor, and I am super excited to work with him in the future as well. ”

“he did really good. he was very thoughtful and we worked through a question then feedback format as it was my first mock. I really enjoyed talking to him as he was very knowledgable and, as it was my first mock we sort of were understanding how it really flows. But for some topics that i struggled on, he knew how to tailor it in a way that I could understand and ultimately made me more knowledgable overall. I guess sometimes he wasn't as engaged with my answers but still took notes which was nice of him”

ER 100%, much more common and a “front office” role compared to credit risk.
