I have an offer from Bank of America Corporate Banking and also from MM investment banks. I want to go buy-side eventually, and know that IBanking is the best way to do this. Is BofA corporate banking (and trying to lateral into IBanking full-time) a smart or too risky strategy? Should I just take an IBanking job at a MM firm for the IBanking experience?

Ant thoughts on direct comparison to investment banking
I was looking at MM to PE placements the other day. If its a top tier MM or a good group I'd say you'd have better options when it comes to PE recruiting and better chances at an elite MBA if that's necessary down the line.
How to make the most of my upcoming SA position - BAML GCB (Originally Posted: 03/12/2013)
I just found out that I received an offer for the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Global Commercial Banking - Credit Summer Analyst position, with prospects of a FT offer, and I cannot be more ecstatic. I just want to thank this amazing site and everyone who has helped me along the way. I am truly blessed.
Now I was wondering if anyone could help me answer a few questions that I have on how to make the most of this internship.
Thank you for reading. Any input is appreciated!
You might want to subtract some of the detail from this post - it will be pretty easy for your employer to identify you should they come across this post, and given your questions, that's not necessarily a good thing.
Edited it. Thank you.
Good call, much better now.
1) Yes 2) Commercial Banking Credit Analyst / Underwriter 3) ~60K + 2-5Ksigning bonus depending on location 4) Yes there are Comm Banking Credit Analysts in the One Bryant Park NY office. Kill it over the summer and get the return offer and tell them you would like to work in NY instead 5) Hard to tell, it'll be easier if you did Corporate Banking Credit. End of the day, yes you have to network if you want to go into IBD at BAML.
What to expect in 2nd round? BAML - GCB SA (Originally Posted: 02/22/2013)
Just got called back for a 2nd round on campus next Thursday for BAML Global Commercial Banking - Credit SA position. Does anyone know what sorts of questions I can expect? Tried to post direct link to job description, but I'm a new user, so I couldn't.
Some facts:
anyone? :(
Would imagine it to be mostly fit, but be prepared for the "what would you look at if you were evaluating a company for a loan or other credit product"?
Once you are in the door anything is possible with networking.
