I am thinking of applying to a summer analyst position at GS Finance Division (only division Goldman recruits at my university). I am also applying to other IBD analyst positions at several other firms. I am ONLY considering it because of the brand name. Would it be better if I just wait until I get an offer at a Boutique, MM, other BB? I am currently a junior and I want to be FT in IBD when I graduate. Should I give it a shot? Any thoughts. Thanks guys!

Definitely go for pure IBD banking experience if that is your end goal. The Goldman brand wont help you as much as real deal exposure
