JPM MMBSI or WF IA?
Greetings,
I received offers from WF in their internal audit function and JPM as an MMBSI analyst. I unfortunately did not receive any IB offers.
Which role would be best to lateral into IB or other recommended exit opportunities?
Background:
I’m graduating Summa Cum Laude in accounting from a low tier state school.
I have my FINRA SIE, Series 6, 63, 65, and state insurance license because I’ve worked for a top 4 retail bank during college (to come out debt free).
I just started studying for my CPA and I plan to start a masters program after a year break (to focus on FT work and get in state tuition). I would do the masters either online or an executive MBA at night (probably from a state school to keep costs down, although I imagine I could get into a reputable school).
I interned for the IA function at Wells and formed good relationships with senior leaders, however, I felt overqualified for the work. I didn’t get to use my financial background and that disappointed me. Additionally, a few people there recommended I pursue a different opportunity due to my talents (implying it was a dead end).
I’m trying to balance not putting too much weight on prestige while giving myself opportunities for growth with this decision. This is not a financial decision for me, purely educational.
I greatly appreciate input, thanks.
MMBSI, when hiring market was hot top performers could move into IB. Also, within MMBSI there is the capital advisory and solutions (CAS) track which houses asset based lending(ABL), financial sponsors group(FSG) and syndicated finance group(SFG). ABL, SFG, FSG routinely place into Private Credit/ Direct lending with some rare LMM PE exits
Thank you!
