Which internship?

This is a very vague question I know,
But hypothetically which of these companies looks best on your cv?
Fidelity investments, SocGen, Barclays, Zurich insurance

Only thing that matters is which one you can actually get accepted for. Apply for every single one and pray.

I’ve been accepted for two and done ACs for the other two! Very lucky I know haha

Depends on whether it's for the same role across the firms. Also it depends on the specific role, some firms have better x departments than others - Barclays may have a much better division for something, whereas Fidelity might be much better at other things, so the devil is in the details if you want a useful answer

Barclays probably the strong brand name off the bat but it really depends what role.
What did you end up going for? Barclays is obviously the most well known but doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the best! It really depends on which company you think will give the best opportunity to get stuck in with real work and projects - often businesses with less interns will end up providing a more valuable experience.
