MS Fund service analyst vs JPM commercial banking SA analyst?
Up on the fence about which offer I should take. I think the credit analyst at the commercial bank has a much better training program and reputation, but really unsure about what the fund services group does at MS besides deal with hedge funds and what not from what it says on their website. Can't find much online about it. Anyone have any information about this group? Also which offer would you take?
Depends on your goals in the short/medium term. However, I would choose JPM Commercial Banking. You will build solid technical skills and the firm is known for lateral movement. I'm not exactly sure what the MS Fund Servicing job entails, but it sounds like a MO/BO type role. Take the 10-week commercial banking training and try to leverage your network for full time recruiting.... (Just my opinion, take it for what its worth)
Yea I kinda agree with you I'm really leaning towards CB because of the future options the training program opens up. Anyone have an idea of pay, hours ,etc?
Don't have much time right now to provide more detail... but fund services is primarily admin, ops, BO/MO stuff. Commercial banking is FO and provides a transferrable skill set (fund services does not) and you will have solid exposure to analyzing companies from a financial, operational, and industry perspective.
If you are interested in working at a hedge fund one day I would still say take the commercial banking offer and go this route CB SA -> CB FT (or go straight to IBD if you're able) -> Lateral to IBD -> HF
