Leveraged Finance vs. TMT
Which would you choose assuming you had offers for each from a top tier bulge firm (think: JPM or Citi)? Why? Which offers the best for long-term career prospects?
Thanks in advance.

Career Resources
this is for a first year associate position.
I guess it's what you're interested in personally. Depends on the bank, too. I don't know why, but I'd rather work in Lev Fin at a smaller bank than get lost in the giant maze that is JPM SLF. To me, if the TMT group is strong at the bank, that's personally interesting to me and I wouldn't mind focusing on it as a career. If you're the kind of person that likes variety and execution, then go Lev Fin.
wouldn't a career in TMT offer greater exit opportunities than a career in leveraged finance? Although clearly I think lev fin would position a person well for hedge fund exit opps, wouldn't a TMT background make one more marketable for PE opportunities as well as industry opps?
In the long run, who is better positoned?
Are you looking for a career or exit opps? It really depends, you won't pigeonhole yourself with TMT or Lev Fin. The longer you wait to move to HF or PE, though, the harder it will get.
