What group is the least competitive?

What group is the easiest to get summer internships/jobs for? Is M&A easier than PE or WM? I'm not personally familiar with what each group actually does but I just want to know which one is the least competitive to break into.

Sit aut ad eaque voluptatibus. Quia est fugit ut expedita qui.

Molestiae aliquam assumenda sapiente. Odit perferendis voluptatum neque debitis. Ipsam et fugiat aut iure officiis laboriosam.

Distinctio omnis architecto et. Consequatur earum laudantium ut occaecati quis ut laboriosam. Ducimus et iste aperiam sit perferendis error id. Ea aut libero ut totam velit et voluptate nesciunt. Optio rem repellat facilis aut.
