financemajor4, bummer your thread hasn't had a response yet. Maybe one of these threads could point you in the right direction:
If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
Jane has an excellent training program and is an amazing resume booster. Most interns who get full time offers choose to return there for full time anyways. Optiver's training is pretty good and the name is pretty respected in the space. Citadel has prestige but don't think your training will be amazing. The rest are just dominated.
If you have offers from all of them I would probably choose Jane unless you have something seriously against going to New York, and even then I would possibly choose Jane since interns travel to one of their foreign offices

Why is training not amazing at Citadel?
Citadel prefers to hire trained people from other firms. They have almost unlimited money, so they can afford to do that, and pay top dollar.
I agree with that claim on the HF side. On the MM side, they just launched this: https://www.citadelsecurities.com/careers/the-110/ .. sounds like a S&T style training program to me (rotational).
