What internship to keep on resume? — no space for both. (F500 Strat Fin vs LMM Boutique IB)
Ignore the title (incoming FT IB). I didn’t do my junior-summer SA at a bank. Instead, I spent that summer in strategy & finance at a well-known F500 CPG company, and my sophomore summer at a lower-middle-market boutique in energy coverage.
When I start full-time, I’ll realistically only have space for one internship on my resume. I’m trying to decide which is better to keep.
On one hand, the LMM boutique is directly relevant to investment banking, but it isn’t a household name. On the other hand, the strategy & finance role was my junior-summer experience, carries strong brand recognition, and flows more naturally on the resume.
I’m leaning toward keeping the strategy & finance role, given the brand name and the fact that I’m already starting full-time in IB, so I’m not sure how much weight people will place on a sophomore-summer boutique at that point.
Tbh if you have a full time job in IB, no one will really care about the internship. Better brand name is my suggestion
