Hey, who got offers? I got one in the investment bank (equity derivatives, sales & trading) and they're sending me a contract next week. I'm anxious about signing it since I'm still considering the unsw co-op scholarship! What do you guys reckon? I talked to HR at UBS, and they said that for a grad position in the IBD, they would much rather hire a cadet from my area rather than a co-op scholar for two reasons: 1) I'd be "part of the UBS family" (her exact words) and 2) I'd have a much greater depth of experience working at UBS for four years, rather than just doing a 12-week project in the co-op program. She also said that it is possible to do comm/law in the cadet program (starting the law component at the start of the third year) if you feel you can handle it. At the moment, UBS has the allure of 4 years of front-office experience (and more than double the $ of the co-op), whereas I would imagine that the co-op is a lot less stressful because you're not studying and working simultaneously.
What should I do?!
