Citi Quant vs. BlackRock FMG
Hi all,
I'm a senior undergrad (engineering & finance). I have FT offers from both Citi Quant (sell-side rotational program: 1 year of research + 1 year of trading) and BlackRock Financial Modeling Group (FMG, buy-side research).
The work I would be doing for the first year would be almost identical (but obviously not the second year), so I was wondering what you guys thought about prestige and exit opportunities.
Thanks.
depends on what exit opps appeal most to you. i'd think citi would better position you for PE since it's sell-side. If you're into HFs however, i'd go with blackrock.
I could be wrong, but I do not think either would really set you up for PE... its not too normal to see people go from trading to PE.

If you want to do trading in the future, do Citi. If you want to pursue a buy-side role in research, do BlackRock. Personally I would do Blackrock. A buy-side research role will allow an easier transition into buyside portfolio management plus the BlackRock name is solid.
what the fuck are you saying. take citi hands down if it was portfolio management group then you could have pondered for a minute
