Choosing a Group- Citi Capital Markets Origination

Hey everyone,

I just accepted an offer for Citi's Capital Markets Origination group. I am hoping to break into investment banking but was wondering how I could best set myself up for FT recruiting by choosing the right group. From what I hear, none of the groups are modeling intensive. Any advice on which group would be best? Citi for debt underwriting is ranked #1 so I am considering something in fixed income/lev fin.

Here are groups that they have: Alternative Energy Finance Asset Based and Transitional Finance Asset Finance Group Credit Opportunities Equity Capital Markets Fixed Income Capital Markets Global New Products Global Loans Capital Markets Global Securitized Products Global Structured Debt Issuer Services Latin America Capital Markets Leveraged Finance Liability Management Money Markets Origination Residential Finance Real Estate Finance Group

I'd really appreciate any insight. Thanks!
