[Rising sophomore seeking advice] Should I take this VC internship if my final goal is IB?
Hi everyone, I am currently a rising sophomore (with a diversity background) at a U.S. T30 non-target school hoping to break it into investment banking. In my freshman summer, I remotely interned at a U.S. search fund and a marketing consulting firm with the hope that the prior will help me find a boutique IB internship in sophomore and the latter will pay my living expenses.
I am currently in the process of crazily searching for a sophomore in-semester boutique IB internship but have not secured even one first-round interview yet. At this point, my friend helped me secure a solid VC in-semester internship Superday opportunity. Here is the VC firm's description: "Our program provides hands-on support for partnerships, business development, fundraising, and growth combined with an initial investment package of US$150,000 with millions available in follow-on funding. Our focus is on digitalization to drive efficiency across ecommerce, fintech, media, healthcare, education, and logistics and drive a revolution for the next four billion."
My question for you is, if I do this VC internship, will my resume looks disorganized and disoriented by the time IB 2024 (diversity programs) and 2025 recruitment start? Because if I do I will have: a search fund (PE side), a VC, and a consulting listed, and it could be hard for explaining all the hassle. Should I just give it up and keep looking for boutique IB in-semester internships?
I appreciate any advice as this is a pressing decision. Thank you so much!!!
