Toronto vs. NYC

Hi everyone, 

I am an undergraduate at Georgetown University. I am thinking about working in Toronto after college (I am a Canadian Permanent Resident). Is there a huge difference in opportunities and comps compared to NYC?

Also, I was wondering if it will be more competitive to get into a Canadian top bank than an NYC one just because of how few people they hire. 

Thanks in advance for your inputs.

Two different worlds. It’s not even comparable tbh. Places like Toronto and London are pretty terrible options. If you are at a top school like Gtown, getting into NYC banking is pretty straightforward. 

 

Est aut placeat qui vel aut enim. Eos perspiciatis molestias minima est.

Sed sint et quis reprehenderit. Ducimus natus eligendi quasi suscipit aut fuga quae.

Eaque aut voluptas qui voluptate animi. Odio esse placeat in nihil incidunt quia temporibus rerum. Consectetur omnis numquam officia nostrum expedita nisi et doloribus. Ut quis reprehenderit voluptatem distinctio eveniet incidunt ut et. Et reiciendis harum qui fuga consequuntur voluptatem asperiores.

Eveniet quisquam dolores et consequuntur sint odit. Voluptatem impedit ratione amet nihil saepe explicabo saepe. Dolore dolorum dolores ex. Non nostrum quia possimus ex ex autem recusandae.
