S&T Rates Trading

If you have an offer from MS/Citi/Barclays should you try and apply at GS/JPM if you want to do Rates trading?

Or is that risk too high/the time spent not worth it?

What's the industry view on this?

ms rates is dogshit. citi rates is probably on par with goldman. havent heard barc. I personally wouldnt.

I think the ranking goes goldman -> citi -> jpm -> barc -> ms

 

Can confirm you cannot get a analyst role at gs rates right now (I just wrapped up SA there)
