Internship at a credit union vs. regional bank
Due to my mediocre GPA (3.1) I was turned down for internships at the large bulge bracket banks. As investment banking or corporate finance are my two passions, I want to have good experience entering those career paths. I need your help with a decision... I have the chance to intern at my regional Federal Credit Union as a credit analyst. Although it is not a larger bank or glamorous internship, I will be learning valuable skills by doing efficiency analysis, credit ratios, and excel projects. I also was offered a position at a large regional bank accepting calls from customers who have questions about our new bank wide overdraft policy. Although it is not directly related to finance, I think the experience would provide me with sharper sales and customer relation skills as well as the name of a publicly traded bank on my resume. Which summer position would be better experience before applying for entry level jobs my senior year? Thanks for your help.
In the first internship sounds like you'll be learning to be a credit analyst while in the second internship you sound like "a person at a large regional bank accepting calls from customers who have questions about the new bank wide overdraft policy". Given the information, I would say you will learn more in the first internship.
