I was fortunate enough to land and accept an offer for a full-time analyst role beginning in late June 2016. I am in a bit of different situation than most as I am slated to graduate in December. My years in college have been very dense so to say, as a result of a significant athletic commitment in addition to the pursuit of multiple majors of study. My original plan was enjoy my last few months of "freedom" by doing some traveling, visiting friends at other universities,spending time with family, and enjoying the college scene for one last semester (something I did not have much of a chance to do while in school). As we all know, these are all luxuries that will not afforded to us once we begin our banking careers. Also, my current lease runs through the end of the school year anyways.
I figured I would search for a relevant part-time internship for the spring so that I wouldn't spend the time being completely unproductive and would have some extra spending money for going out and such. The PE firm that I interned at this past summer has also offered me a temporary role to fill the gap between my graduation and the beginning of my analyst program. Would this idea be viewed negatively if I were to propose it to the guys who were in charge of recruiting me for the IBD role? Looking to get some feedback from fellow WSO members before I decide to open a dialogue with the firm.

Why would you have to let them know at all? Not that I think it would matter to them
Not sure I understand why this would be a problem man...very common in Europe. Might be best to enjoy your time off to the fullest though before hitting the desk
I'm also graduating in December and starting in June-July. I could see why you would want to work part-time...
Actually no, I do not understand it. Don't do it. At this point, it really doesn't provide you any other benefit besides some extra spending money. I'm planning on doing some intense traveling. I suggest you do the same or do something that can benefit your life (learn a new talent/sport, travel, learn a language, take up some cool new hobbies, etc.).
Also graduating in dec. Microfinance in Africa/climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro and scuba diving in the Galapagos.
Take a solid 2-3 of the 6 months to travel and have adventures/fun outside of the structure, corporate world.
