<p>I'm a sophomore and I was wondering if interning at the Private banking division of a BB such as Merrill is generally looked down upon by employers. I am thinking of branching out to consulting in the summer of my Junior year with BCG or McKinsey (if I can make it) for a summer internship and was wondering how they'll view a private banking experience on my resume.</p>
<p>How impressive is it? Is it detrimental?</p>
<p>bump anyone?_</p>
<p>What do you want to do, ultimately? If it's anything finance related, ANY job/internship with Merrill Lynch will look good in my opinion.</p>
<p>As for your consulting internship next summer, if you're receiving good marks in school, I don't forsee a problem. The fact that you worked for a prestigious company like ML will probably score you bonus points.</p>
<p>hmm...I hope it looks good---</p>
<p>Post your stats please and we can evaluate.</p>
<p>oh yeah sure</p>
