SA Group Placement Questions

Have group placement for my SA at a MM bank coming up and was wondering how I should figure out how the hell to rank each of the different coverage groups for my potential SA group assignment. I’m thinking about recruiting for a better FT role, so besides my personal interest in the group, how I feel about the group as a potential FT group if do stay on for FT, and which group would offer me the best opportunities to recruit for an EB/BB FT role coming from an MM as an SA/get the most deal experience (or are these two separate things?). What are some other things worth considering??

Appreciate any and all advice.
