They’ll take your first choice, throw every other application of yours away, then throw away your first choice too because obviously you have no choice if you apply to 10 programs.
If you're applying to get in with zero direction, why would I want to hire you? Sure- everyone wants to work in IB however i'm 2-3x more likely to hire someone to takes the time to learn my vertical and express directed interest and passion about the space instead of the apply everywhere attitude just to get a seat. If that's what you're looking at- i'd ask yourself why you want to be in IB at all
There's nothing wrong with applying everywhere in terms of different groups at different firms, but HR will see you have no direction so do what you can to minimize that external view
