Top 20 IB Offer or Middle-Office Citadel Offer?
Currently a junior at a semi-target school, I recently secured an internship offer from Citadel in their middle office as an operations generalist intern. Additionally, I've received an offer for an investment banking position at a top 20 league tables (BB/MM) investment bank. I'm seeking guidance on the prestige, learning opportunities, and value of each internship and the factors I should take into consideration.
For more information about the Citadel internship, you can refer to this link: https://www.citadel.com/careers/details/operations-intern-us/. As for the investment banking internship, I prefer to keep the details anonymous.
I'm particularly interested in understanding which internship would enhance my resume more. Is a middle office internship at Citadel valuable, and does it serve as a worthwhile entry point into the alternative investment manager industry? Alternatively, should I lean towards sticking with the investment banking offer?
Which one is more prestigious on the resume? Which one will likely provide a better learning experience?
I also have my personal preferences and interests towards each of these respective roles, but would rather just hear objective perspectives from all the IB & HF people here. Thank you in advance!
You've either got an offer from a BB or an MM, which is it?
I’m going to make an educated guess that OP’s in either a low-tier BB/IBAB like Wells Fargo or a MM firm since he said “top 20”.
WF is not a BB
Since when was Wells Fargo a BB? Don't be absurd.
IB hands down
