How to answer “why our bank” in S&T?

Title. In ibd you can look up the deals and bullshit your way through but is s&t i feel like every bank is the same if they are in the same bracket.

i.e why ms? Then my answer would be applicable to why gs/jpm/ bofa too

Genuine question

Can always point to alum at the bank that’s my go to or the rotational program. Also I like to bring up strategy/research podcasts from the bank - jpm has anyrate, gs has gs markets, ms has thoughts on the market

 

Alum means the ppl in the bank you networked in?

For rotational program, could u elaborate a bit more? Thanks alot
