Transfer to economics and politics(bath)

I was rejected by bath and now planning to make economics and politics of exeter as my firm choice in ucas. However it seems bath is much better than exeter(especially in employability?not sure about the teaching)and i hope to transfer to bath in my second year. Does anyone have this experience before?
Tbh i am from hong kong and not sure whether i will start my career in uk after graduation. Yet i realise economics graduates of bath are quite popular among international firms. Will a degree in exeter instead of bath affect my chance of working in these companies?

Exeter is an excellent university.

And, much as I dislike rankings, on QS Exeter is overall equal with Bath. 161 vs 159. 2 places difference isn't going to be an issue.

An Exeter and a Bath student will both be looked at by companies for jobs. It will make zero difference in the end for you to change.

They'll be 0 difference in employment prospects and as for teaching you can tell if the lecturers will be good or bad til you get there and most courses have some great and some awful lecturers anyway
