Best Credit Underwriting Group

Hi All,

Received a FT offer from a BB to work in the credit underwriting division. Possible credit underwriting groups are equities, munis, rates, and securitized products.

More generally-- was wondering what the best group would be to work at in terms of advancement + exit opps, etc.

And then more specifically-- if looking to transfer into IBD, DCM/ECM, or mezzanine/credit fund work.

Thanks in advance.
