Hey guys, fortunately got an offer to do an OC at a top tier BB (JPM, GS, MS), and have an offer to do a summer internship at MF PE (KKR, CVC, EQT)
If I get a return offer for the BB do you think they would allow me to return back/ delay start date for 10 weeks after I finish the summer stint at the PE shop?
Timelines: Jan -June OC at BB, June - August at PE

Probably not - BBs always lose analysts to the buy-side so they will assume that you're not coming back after your PE stint
just say you want to enjoy your holiday before you start the world of work.
Impossible, training starts in june/July and is mandatory. They might allow you 1-2 days off for extreme reasons such as exams. Also you will have to study and complete the FCA exams
Take both you won’t be able to start before February or next summer cohort anyways most likely.
But given this is MS, they are notorious to keep your OC running till the next graduate class date. So in case you get an offer you’ll have to burn bridges on either of the two parties.
Is there just one round of FT start date (I.e July) or could you delay to the next round - do they have a Jan start?
Bump - is it even necessary to wait for almost one year before starting full time or is it possible to start in October or January after the SA (assuming university finishes early)
