Hi everyone,
At the spring week stage, how much of an issue is it to go back on an offer you accepted? I’ve found that the dates for a spring week at a BB clash with the dates of a MM that has more focus on GCM/markets. I would prefer the BB as they have a bigger focus on investment banking which I am more interested in, but am not sure how to go about it.
Thank you for any advice.

it's a spring week no one cares. do the one that's better for your career
Thank you for reassuring me haha. I think seeing stuff about being blacklisted scared me a bit.
Actually reneging on any offer (FT, SA, Spring) is fine, and you need to do what is best for you. This happens all the time, and HR are well-aware of it so hold candidates in reserve or over-recruit to account for it. Selfishly, as a banker, I don't like it when people I interviewed, called and gave an offer to, etc., renege, but I know I'd do the same if I had what I perceived to be a better offer
