Stifel KBW SF or Venture Capital ?

Hi all,

Recently got a superday for both names mentioned above. The VC firm is affiliated with my school and takes a couple interns per year; the guy who runs it is a total boss.

Anybody know what the culture/interview process is like for KBW SF? I would still be thrilled to do IB, but at the same time VC seems very cool as well. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
