Prop Trading vs S&T summer internship
Hello!
I've managed to get two internship offers for the upcoming summer here in London and I'm struggling to decide which to choose. The first is from a newer prop trading firm (not Optiver/Jane Street but well-reputed), and the second is a BB volatility desk offer. Prop trading obviously pays more with nice perks, but don't want that to sway me too much for just the internship. I think the root difficulty for me is that I really have no idea which career path I would enjoy more. As such preserving option value is really important for me: I've heard that prop trading is harder to get into at the graduate level without a previous summer and that a prop summer can be leveraged into an S&T grad role if I decide pure quant isn't for me. But at the same time, is the BB's brand name and prestige beyond prop and S&T too much to pass over?
What do you think? Thanks in advance for any advice/pointers.
