Yes this year was brutal. I personally struggled a lot, despite having 1 BB and 1 LMM PE off-cycle internships in the CV

 

Think logically about this. Recruiting has been bad this year. When you go and re-recruit it won't be like this.

Also Santander IBD in Europe is probably a good bet. SocGen is risky because of abysmal conversion rate to FT.

 

Well yh this ranking is obvious but has just completely not answered OP's question. I will though. If the offer is PJT secondaries pick that. If not, pick socgen. Secondaries pay at evr/pjt rivals IBD. In London evr pca is especially lucrative, paying more than BB IBD. I personally know of someone who left a bb to go to pjt secondaries and was paid significantly more. Only downside is sub optimal pe exit opps, which I imagine is the reason you want the ib switch.
