I wouldn't go within a million miles of a public sector role. Low rates + you will be axed as soon as the LibCon cuts come into effect.
I think this is the most obvious choice of the century.Comment

IMHO I would go RBS, may not have the best of reputations at the moment, but should set you up for some more lucrative banking gigs down the line.
