Recently received BB S&T London Office, no idea what desks I might fit. Help πŸ™ πŸ™

Coming from a less mathematically rigorous engineering background, where I've also barely done any stats, added im not the most extroverted geeza out there, I’m trying to figure out which desk would suit me best. There are so many options, and I’d really appreciate any advice or insights.

I interned in one of the banks you said did an ac at this summer. All of them have like a 50% return rate except citi which is a bit higher. My advice is pick the desk you get on best with and which hopefully has space for a junior. Doesn’t matter how much you find the product interesting if the ED/VP’s on the desk don’t like you you’re probably not getting a job ..
