Transferrable experience to IB?

Yes - Can leverage and get into a MM with sound technicals + good behaviourals

No - Not directly transferable to a MM bank and would stay away from it trying to get into IB

Sorry I should have been a little clearer. Will edit the post to reflect this. 

So I have an offer at a no name MM where I will be doing the same work as the RSM role (I just added the role with description as a reference) + some pitch deck and modelling work (albeit the modelling will not be a focus of the internship rather IMs, Pitchdecks, Teasers will be something I will be working on more etc). Was wondering if this would be good for someone such as myself with no prior IB experience and if I could use this 12 month placement to get a analyst role at Jefferies, RBC or any other well known MM/EB in the UK?

I can send across the actual firm + job description via DM but since the firms office's in the UK are not huge it won't be hard to spot me on LinkedIn.
