Entry Level Question

Hey guys I am new to the site and was looking for some info. I am a senior graduating from a non target. I have received offers from a few banks and am now evaluating my options. I have offers for ops and investment advisory from BB and an offer for loan syndication at an Asian bank. The loan group is considered to be apart of IBD of the Asian bank although I realize this isn't high top flight IB it does sound to be most appealing in comparison to ops and advisory. I am just wondering if I take the syndication job what type of exit ops are available and which type of career path I might be led down? I have always been interested in IB and corporate finance. I am also currently enrolled to take the CFA L1 next year. Thanks for your help.
