Middle Market Commercial Banking Internship at BB or F500 Audit/Accounting Sophomore Internship?

Currently deciding between a Middle Market Commercial Banking role at a well known BB or a audit/accounting role at a F500, which role would be the most valuable for IB recruiting? Thanks.

Well, clearly you know nothing about commercial banking.

Commercial banking at a BB is a far different experience than commercial banking at a community bank or regional bank. Higher pay, potentially fast promotion schedule, and higher internal transferability (if he wanted to move to corporate banking/IB down the road).

Your cashier analogy is trash.
