UBS ECM vs. KBW banks group??

Need to decide between a full time analyst offer with UBS ECM and the financial institutions focused KBW, both in NYC. As a senior undergraduate, I am interested in a variety of industries and do not have enough experience to say with confidence what I would prefer. I have read a lot of bad things capital markets and ECM and was wondering which would be a better place to start your career?

Thanks
