Summer intern: JPM Private Bank v.s Barclays SnT

Fortunately I got summer intern offers from JPM private bank and Barclays SnT, now kinda struggling between these two offers.

SnT certainly provides a steeper learning curve and the knowledge/skills I will learn is probably more sophisticated . But JPM is surely better in terms of bank development and reputation.

Anyone can offer some insights? Is it better to start my career in SnT rather than pb? Thanks a lot.

I prefer a client-facing + market facing role. So if I go for SnT, I will probably develop as a sales whereas in pb, I will become an investor.

I don't have a strong preference because both jobs are client facing and offer me exposure to the markets...

 

The struggling is that I do not have a strong preference over the roles because both jobs are client facing and offer me exposure to the markets.

My interviewers from the banks felt quite similar.....sales-type people.
