Internship during senior year after securing FT IB
I want to know y’all opinion on the following.
I received a FT offer to join a bank in July after graduation. I have two internships offer that would allow me to build my skills until I leave for IB (6-8 months of work) and am torn on which one to choose.
One internship is about 25-30 hours a week but is paid salary of 75k. Pretax that’s a decent chunk of change for an intern. Work experience would be decent, VC backed SaaS based company working in FP&A.
The other internship is a PE Fund of funds, (think between 500m-1,000m in capital). Same amount of hours but pay is like $10 dollars an hour. They are invested in some good funds (think, SilverLake, Accel, etc) Work experience is probably not that cool (updating reports) but would do it for the hopeful connections into a PE shop later.
Would you take the money (extra 30-40k in pocket) or would you take the PE hoping it would help you for PE recruiting later?
I am pretty broke (15k) so I am leaning towards the money but wanted to see what others in IB think?
