Which placement offer would give me the best chance in joining IB S&T?

Im looking to land a grad role in IB Sales & Trading in the UK.

I have accepted a Summer Internship offer at a large international Bank in their Middle Market Corporate Banking division but I also have the opportunity to take a year out of my studies to complete one of these placements.

  1. FP&A and Decision Support Analyst at Pfizer (30 mins from London)

  2. Monetisation Strategy and Software Sales Officer at Unity (Central London)

Both placements pay the same and are the same length. Unity does seem very client facing while Pfizer will most likely be more technical.

Any advice or thoughts on either of the companies/roles is appreciated.
