In my opinion corp banking will help you a little more in the sense that you will most likely be working with investment bankers so you will be able to network with them and if you do a good job I don’t see a reason why they wouldn’t vouch for you. TAS also is a feeder into IB so up to you. I would personally choose corp banking for the networking aspect.
Tough one but I would probably argue in favor of TAS. CB allows you to network in the hopes of transferring but that is pretty limited to the bank you are already at.. not sure that other banks will look at your CB background and consider you for a lateral into their IB programs. TAS on the other hand is a feeder to many banks in a good market.
Lol how is this a question. Corporate banking and it’s not close.
much higher comp + benefits at a bank than big 4 TAS. I would much rather hire a corporate banker than TAS from big 4 and see it more frequently
JPM much better brand than any big 4 as well
Corporate bankers don’t know much about transactions and all they do is put together PowerPoints and read credit docs.
TAS at Big 4 is bottom bucket fairness opinions with guys who (1) don't work nearly as hard as corporate banking and (2) can't even use PPT or read credit docs
Sounds like what IB analysts do.
Thing is I don't really care about comp and benefits for my internship. I know that a lot of people take the following path: Audit internship at Big 4 =>TAS internship at Big 4 => IB internship, which then hopefully converts into a FT position later on.
Tbh I haven't seen corporate banking internship => IB internship that often, but yeah the work would definitely be much more compelling than TAS.
