[Freshman Student] Unpaid Internships

Hi,
I'm currently a Freshman at college and I was wondering if I should do an Unpaid internship this fall. I found a big Video Game company that is hiring a research Analyst.
Job description:
To collect, analyze and write about the video game industry. This internship provides the opportunity to analyze video game financials, build data models and present findings valuable to game developers and investors.

So my questions are,
Is it worth doing this UNPAID internship? Do future IB internships look at ur previous experience?

Thank you for reading!

 

If its not going to take a huge time sacrifice, I say might as well do it. I would imagine that as a freshman, you probably don't have much on your resume so you there's no harm in starting now even if doesn't seem relevant to your end goal. Besides, from the description, there are some transferable things involving modeling and analysis.
