Finance RA at uni: does it help with SA?

Hi,

Do you think that being a Research Assistant in the finance department of my (target) uni would look good for 2024 Summer internships? I couldn't get in any spring week (only Big4) and I didn't find an internship for this summer, so this is the only "work" experience I can put on my CV. Good GPA and a couple of ECs. What are the chances I get to interviews for IB?
