I will most probably have an internship with Booz Allen Hamilton next summer. I know it is a top consulting firm but I am doing it just to get some experience. I don't exactly want to pursue consulting as a career, rather I want to break into ibanking. would the internship significantly help me impress ibanks?
It might help to get an internship at an i-bank, however, any work experience can be a beneficial thing, especially for interviews. I know a bunch of people who interned at consulting firms then pursued careers in ibanking. Don't know exactly what to tell you, Booz Allen is a great firm.
polo1a, if it were that easy to get an ibanking internship i would have had one by now wouldn't I now? I hope to learn a lot through at Booz Allen Hamilton so hopefully that will help me. I don't go to a school recruited by ibanks so it is very VERY HARD to get even close to ibanking.
