Absolutely Lazard Paris no question. Easiest line of reasoning is that you’ll have a much better opportunity to move to the Middle East with “foreign” experience, if ultimately that’s something you want. SWFs and big PE firms there will be very accessible if you have the Lazard Paris experience. Meanwhile if you go to Dubai now, you’ll have a hard time coming back to Paris or Europe in general.
BBs in the Middle East aren’t as important or active. The experience you’ll get from Lazard can’t be matched in this case. You’ll be learning much more in Paris.
Paris is also a much better city than Dubai in my opinion.
I second this, having interned at an EB in DXB
Agree this is true for now, but the tide is definitely shifting. A lot of talent moving out towards ME and less coming inbound. In 3-5 years I think the answer will be the other way round but for now Laz Paris
