Career Resources
return rate is not a concern at this moment; both are decent.
It's pretty clear that your MM is Macquarie.
I would take the BB. There will be more opportunities for you in Hong Kong as a native Cantonese and mandarin speaker anyway.
sure but as I have long looking forward a more international career I am not sure whether it is the right timing to go back to APAC :) I have heard that I may get pigeonholed if I intern in HK the opportunity cost seems huge. if I am going to do uk ft hiring, which one do you think may give me more advantages?
Most London banks either don't hire for FT, or only hire in small numbers. The BB will probably give you a better chance due to the brand, but your chances won't be good either way.
I don't know what you mean by 'pidgeonholed'. If you're a good analyst you will still be able to move internally to a different office if that's what you want. If you're talking about exits then the BB will still be better for the brand and deal flow.
always heard that moving from LDN to HK will be easy while HK to LDN will be almost impossible :) but sure, internal transfer is always an option. any info about Macquarie tho? I truly like the people and culture, but how is the principle investing arm doing in this industry? ( I know MIRA is fantastic, but what about MacCap?
Macquarie PI is fine. Not the best shop in town but you will get good experience there.
Can't speak for the team in London, but I know that Frankfurt has been doing pretty well in both principal and advisory in the last years.
