How to separate myself for Energy Banking?

Hey all

I want to end up in a Energy Banking in Texas. These banks do recruit from my school(regional target). How can I separate myself during recruiting? Does specific industry knowledge (Permian oil basin?) help? Thanks.

Damn I interned in Oil & Gas IB, hearing words like the permian make my body lust for black gold

What concert costs 45 cents? 50 Cent feat. Nickelback.
 

Analyst or associate? I'd be up to date on recent industry trends. For example, why does crude trade at a +$10 discount to WTI (lack of midstream takeaway infrastructure is creating a flood of supply in the region).

 

Thanks! Do you think Broad industry knowledge like information found in a primer or Oil and gas Journals would be more useful than trying to self teach O&G valuation?
