So I got 2 job offers this week & I'm having trouble deciding which is the best opportunity for me.
I got an opportunity at BofA for a Business Analyst position. I'd primarily be assisting those in the IB division & talking to brokers to update data.
I also have an offer from Siemens as a Financial Analyst. I'd be doing budget analysis, cost analysis, SAP work, etc.
I'm wondering which is the better opportunity & could possibly lead me to higher paying/more prestigious roles in banking down the road. I'd also like to get my MBA down the road. I realize Siemens is Corp. Finance, but couldn't those skills translate to banking?
My threads.
Siemens should be a better educational experience. BofA should be a better networking experience.
I actually think the Siemens experience could look great if you apply for MBA. You could then join as an Associate.
My 2 cents. Since the BofA position doesn't seem to be a front office position I would take the Siemens role. I could see that role transitioning to a TMT IB associate role post MBA for example.
Someone once told me to avoid anything other than front office work, if at all possible, because you don't want to run the risk of being pigeonholed.
