Sophomore at west coast target trying to decide between the 3 offers. Not sure which to take. Interest in being career banker but also interested in PE. Think my goal would be to recruit FT for a better EB/BB/MM (only in LA) so wondering which bank gives me the best shot to do so. Would stay at one if someone dropped some profound crazy insights tho.

The MQ LA team covers gaming and is no1 adviser in that vertical
Whatever you do, don’t do MUFG Project Finance…
If this is for a sophomore internship, I feel like MUFG PF is not a bad choice here
Why not? Have heard it’s a top player in the space
Whats the issue with MUFG PF? Or are you just referring to comp?
If he goes MUFG PF and realizes he hates it he’ll have a hard time recruiting outside of PF. MQ and Lincoln clear for a sophomore internship and carry better brand.
I'm personally more interested in PF than gaming by a lot bc it has exposure to renewables HOWEVER everyone seems to shit on MUFG, which sort of says something.
are there any of those types of funds in LA? Could I lateral to a BB/EB from PF? I feel like Lincoln would give me a solid shot to do so but idk about MUFG since it’s not M&A work
I've interviewed/networked at MCQ/MUFG at some point in my career. Strictly my opinion so take it with a grain of salt:
For your goals, I think MCQ or Lincoln would be best.
Good luck!
Thank you! that might be the move for me then, like I said my main goal is to lateral FT to a better bank so I reckon I’ll go with the M&A focused roles
