It probably doesn’t make much of a difference, but hypothetically what would be the more valuable work experience from the perspective of someone in admissions at a top MBA:

1) Working for a small regional investment firm most likely as a financial advisor, possibly in IBD or equity research.

2) Working at a national commercial bank.

3) Working at a Big Four accounting firm.

I go to a small state school a long way away from the hustle and bustle of Wall Street, but I would like to get there someday after achieving an MBA. Which of these presents the best scenario?
