I wouldn't do it. You would be banned from on-campus recruiting next year, and if you don't get a full-time offer you could be screwed.

I would do it.

I turned down Citi S&T my last summer before FT because I already accepted Lehman IT about 1 month prior. Now I work in MO / BO. Should have reneged.

Learn from me, if you want it, take it. This is your dream man. They are at-will to fire you without explanation, yet you have to give them an explanation as to why you are going to Citi? No way.

 

it's worth the risk b/c it's Blackrock PAG... and you probably wouldn't apply to them in the future or bump into them

========================================= We are excited to formally extend to you an offer to join Bank of Ameria

Just curious, but which BB?

Just reject Blackrock and take the offer....Blackrock won' t tell them. Even if you dont get a FT, the HK BB on your resume will get you more BB interviews in the Fall.A BB offer is definitely worth the risk especially since you want S&T. Have fun in HK.

"Greed, in all of its forms; greed for life, for money, for love, for knowledge has marked the upward surge of mankind. And greed, you mark my words, will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA."
 

Think it of this way: Your employer wont think twice about firing you to improve his bottom line, don't think once about him and go improve your bottom line.

I was 18,innocent, learned it from working at Subway..
