¿From Fintech startup to IB?

Hello,

After having been unsuccessful this year on getting any sort of entry-level position within an investment bank, I have been also applying to other industries recently. I have been invited to an interview with the top crowdlending platform in continental Europe, but I do not feel really motivated about working there because I have no idea if this is going to help me get into banking in the future.

The company has had more than 200% growth in the last 5 years and the outlook of these kinds of companies looks good, but I want to value companies, not verifying the credit risk of the projects taken by SMEs...

Does anyone can counsel me on what to do if I receive an offer?

Thank you very much in advance!
