Ops or Tech
Hi guys,
I go to a total non-target University of Michigan Engineering (Non-Ross) and only have a 3.5GPA which is around top 15% in the school but obviously a crappy GPA relative to other majors so I guess it really doesnt matter.
I am a sophomore and applied to S&T but got a choice in Ops or Tech at a BB. Both of them would be supporting roles in S&T.
a) The ops job is just normal ops.
b) The tech job is said to be quantitative
My questions are:
-
Which one will set me up for junior S&T SA better?
-
Which one is more prestigious (I know both aren't but I might apply to non banking jobs in the future too, which one is more highly regarded when I apply to non-finance jobs like consulting?)
-
Is BO still really really easy to come by in this market?
-
Am I behind most people in junior SA recruiting for S&T next year?
-
Am I screwed/pigeonholed (This is my only job offer, I aimed too high)?
-
Which one is generally considered better? Tech or Ops?
Thanks in advance
You're a soph so don't sweat. Do the job you'll be best suited for. I doubt you're behind most people in junior SA as many sophs can't find internships this summer.
bump :)))
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but in this market the chances that you'll be able to make the jump from ops (or tech) to FO are infinitesimal. Take the job you're more interested in, and network your ass off.
Take quant. You're only a sophomore and a summer experience at a BB is a great advantage over any of your peers for junior year internship.
thanks for the replies so far, just wondering if it is possible for you guys to be more specific on some of the questions. I actually decided that finance could be a possible career path for me not long ago so I am still kinda clueless as you can see :)
hehe thanks MDR...bump again :-p
where is this offer?
