Both are great firms and there is no 'better' one to start your career. It depends on which team (if you know which sector/product team you will be allocated to) and what you want to do long term.
Leaning towards the Consumer & Retail sector. I know Rothschild have a good team for this, but generally, much smaller deals compared to Citi. I am thinking I want to be a career banker long-term if I have the opportunity to do so, so wanting a firm I can stick with
Both are great firms - check out this thread: https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/20-most-frequently-asked-questio… team strenghts and what they do.
But in summary you want to do a bunch of MM deals - go Rothschild, you want to experience to full BB experience (M&A, ECM, DCM, LevFin) and work with larger corporates go Citi. It should be more of a personal decision as both are great firm and are well respected for what they do.
I swear none of them have started their conversion, maybe first try to convert?
OP has already landed two fast track assessment centres for great Banks. They have done enough to have the right to ask the question what if I get them both. It has been a rough year we are allowed to dream out loud sometimes.
