Most live deal exposure
Was hoping someone could help:
I have secured a summer analyst internship at a top tier BB in London in IB (Think GS, MS...)
I want to eventually work in whichever department will give me the most live deal exposure.
Given the choice between specific sectors e.g. TMT, real estate etc. the M&A product group and the European (or any other)coverage area, which do you think I should prioritise?
I really appreciate the help - its pretty hard to guage these things looking from the outside in!
go into a product group
agree with Wizard - go M&A
the question is really breadth vs. depth. If you go M&A, you will work a little on a lot of deals. If you go industry group you will work on less deals but will delve much deeper and be much more important for each deal (from my experience)...
Then again, GS doesn't have an M&A group...
According to its website it does?? Is that only in Europe?

Or are 'areas of focus' not intended to be read as specific groups.
ExGSBanker, could you expand on why you would be more involved in an industry group, as opposed to M&A group?
Thanks
Definitely a product group analyst will do more live deals than an industry group analyst, the exception being M&A though.
