Summer Intern Offer - L/S Equity vs. PE
Background: undergrad junior, non-target LAC (went to school in the mid of nowhere)
I am choosing between the two options below. The first one is a return offer from last summer, and the second is a program for a summer internship placement. Which one should I pick if I want to end up in an FT front office role in IB/PE/ER/VC/GE after graduation? What would the ranking be for the second one? Thanks in advance!
- MM PE, ESG/Sustainability team intern
- FT offer after graduation is not guaranteed, depending on their capacity/needs
- no modeling, not on the deal team, just portfolio company (ESG) operations
- ~$3 bn AUM, generalist, very traditional industry focus
- a summer internship placement (with no FT potential) at one of the following firms (all with the deal team); I have to rank my preference:
- LMM PE, ~$400 mm AUM
- buyout & recapitalization
- location is not great (Mideastern suburban area)
- L/S Equity, ~$2 bn AUM
- a small L/S equity firm that no one knows (< 15 people team)
- primarily focus on Europe, investing across the globe
- based in NY & the south
- Growth Equity, ~$1 bn AUM
- invest in SaaS, made quite a few pretty good investments since inception
- based in the south
- LMM PE, ~$400 mm AUM
