hey guys, am a third year student with an internship at pwc. i want to work in an investment bank but am confused about picking one.
Anyone has an idea on how well these banks operate and what would be the most suited option for a fresh graduate; JP morgan, goldman sachs, deutsche bank,,Morgan Stanley or citi bank.

In terms of banks they all offer the same graduate programmes, where you do your analyst stint for 2/3 years continue as a associate or find a exit opportunity at a PE firm or a hedge fund.

Since you're a third year with an internship you have two options, find banks what accept final year students for their internship programmes or apply directly to graduate entry roles. You should not be in the position to be confused about picking one as acceptance rates at most bulge bracket investment banks lies between 0.5-4% of actually getting in, so you maximise your chances by applying everywhere.

Which division are you applying for?

If you can profit the bank, they don't give two s**** about whether or not you sound like Shakespeare.
