Girls Who Invest vs. Advent

For context, the girls at school I know who did GWI were placed at Oaktree, Partners, Warburg Pincus, Wasatch - so a relative mix in terms of brand name.

This is for sophomore summer, so I'm less interested in a return offer and more so how my sophomore offer might be helpful for junior recruiting.

I don't have enough industry experience to have a clear idea of how the risk/benefits break down (guaranteed Advent vs. a mix of names for GWI), and would appreciate thoughts!
