SA '21 or FT '21 Recruiting? Which should I pursue given my circumstances?
In search of advice from those who might have been in my shoes or have insight into my situation.
For background, I attend a large non-target school in Colorado (think CU, CSU, DU). An internship was lined up for Summer 2020 at Bessemer Trust, on the investment team in NY. Those plans fell through.
I am now planning to intern at an Options-focused investment advisory firm, a regional boutique healthcare bank, and a lower MM bank (based in Boston, with a strong presence in Colorado). All three internships will likely take place between now, August '20, and late May '21. I also graduate May '21 and will do so with a 3.8 GPA.
With that in mind, I am pursuing SA '21 AND FT '21 positions, in tandem with an IB focused recruiter.
TLDR, my question is this: Should I continue pushing for SA '21 positions, secure the job and then disclose my need to join the analyst class sooner? Or should I aim for more regional SA '21 positions and hope that all of my experience will land me a FT '21 job?
I ask because I know that analyst classes will likely shrink in the coming year and almost all of the FT spots will be reserved for SA '21 pipeline interns.
I could also consider a part-time MBA while working solely at a Regional Boutique, or get a Msc Finance as a last resort. My mind is open to criticism and ideas.
