I'm in my pre-mba summer internship. My m&a boutique gave me the title "Deal Origination Associate". I'm trying to land BB IBD next summer, should I keep this title or tweak it on my resume?

"Investment Banking Summer Associate"
Done.
You are an SA for IB
Are you doing BD or transaction execution?
BD?
Business development.
im honestly not really sure which category i would fit into. It's a very small group, and it's only my second week. My position is going to involve a lot of random work, so far i've edited COMs (confidential offering memorandums ) and sought out buyer sources for our sell-side advisory clients.
That sounds transaction oriented so I would just go with IB Associate. If your primary role was soliciting new clients/deals for the firm (creating marketing materials, attending industry conferences, working on pitches, etc.) then I would keep the original title, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Investment Banking Summer Associate sounds better
I agree that Investment Banking Summer Associate sounds better, but can I get in trouble if my next employer does a resume/background check and finds out that wasnt my official title?
