Undergrad Career Advice

Hey guys,

So I have a couple offers and a few superdays for some various roles to start my career out of undergrad. I was curious if you guys had any insight or advice into what you thought was the best opportunity. All of them pay relatively well, I am mostly worried about the level of enjoyment in doing the work and the exit opps for them. Any insight or advice into what you guys think are the best opportunity would be awesome. Thanks!

-Job 1: HL Portfolio valuation (NY)

-Job 2: Equity Research MM bank (NY)

-Job 3: PE Real estate (Small middle market asset manager)

I’d pick #1 as I’m most interested in that. I feel you’d develop a good skill set as well.  What interests you the most?
