Thx for the reply. I got an offer for £1K a month + London accommodation paid for (somehwere really dodgy I think)

Would you pick this internship over a summer M&A internship at a real estate firm (think CBRE, JLL etc.) in their regional (non-London) office? My aim is for IB

That's quite solid. If you are keen on real estate go for it, but I would find VC much more interesting than Real Estate. How good is the brand name of the VC?

I don't know anything about Real Estate to be honest but I know these firms are quite good for what it's worth but odds are that I would pick someone in VC having 1) done some VC and 2) there's always good stuff to talk about - but if at your Real Estate M&A firms you can talk about visting the buildings you sold and some cool shit go for it!

 

Thanks for the advice!

Yeah the VC firm is a no name shop (“.. Ventures”). But I think that the experience could still be good/interesting despite this.

Honestly I don’t know much about RE either (except for million dollar listings episodes on bravo lol). Seems quite interesting as well, but personally would find VC more interesting

 

Thx for the reply.

Do you think that this experience significantly improved your application chances when applying to internships again? I wonder if it is worth doing such a long internship for so little pay
