Job opportunities Evaluation

Hello everyone!

I am a penultimate year master in Finance student from a semi target Uni in Paris with really good grades, now I am seeking for your advice because I am trying to evaluate some job opportunities in order to break into investment banking. The issue comes because I do not have relevant experience; I just worked 6 months for the France chamber of commerce in Hong Kong as business development intern And now I am applying in different roles, I started one month ago to look for intern starting in July.

I want to work in M&A even tough is not easy to land directly an internship there, so, while I am looking for opportunities there I am also looking around. My final objective is to break into IB at the end of my master. What would you consider among these offers : Ncheng in NY as financial advisor intern, Pwc audit or Standard Chartered transaction banking? What do you recommend as good internship alternative if I won’t make it to have an intern in M&A directly?

Many thanks!
