Take a Big 4 Sophomore Year?
Hi. I am a rising sophomore and just got an interview at a Big 4 company. I want to go into IB, preferably at a BB obviously, and have applied to a bunch for next summer. If I get this intern role at the Big 4, should I take it? Would this be good as resume builder and would this look good to BBs junior summer?
Yes. It's pretty good for sophomore year.
Depends on what the role is. If it’s something like deal advisory then yeah, that’s great and it fits the progression to banking roles for your third year. If it’s something like tax/assurance/janitor, then probably less compelling.
What about something like strategies/transactions and/or valuation?
All of those are really good and would set you up well. I did valuations at a mid tier accounting firm and landed BB SA. Even Big 4 audit is acceptable for sophomore year contrary to what the above poster said. I've seen a lot of people do Big 4 audit and then get BB SA their junior year. Obviously boutique IB would be best but a good bit of people don't have any IB experience before their SA stint.
