Letters of a boutique banker.

Hi, Im an investment banker in Toronto, for a Boutique Investment bank. I graduated form a Canadian Target School, I interviewed for positions both in Toronto and in New York City. I interviewed for Goldman Sachs,RBC Capital Markets, CIBC, Morgan Stanley, Merill Lynch NY, and Merill Lynch TO, and a whole bunch of other firms. Long story short, I got a few offers from a few boutiques, and a few prop shops. Long story short, I have to ask, does coming from a boutique hinder my chances at an NYC BB or comparable Hedge Fund or PE firm?
