I absolutely think the buy side experience. The skills are much more applicable, and it's not like it's Goldman Business Analyst, it's Capital One.
.
Don't turn down capital one unless you have an internship in hand. You don't want to end up with nothing on your resume... its not typcially acceptable but if you accept and then get a reputable internship on the buyside renig on capital one.. you'll burn that bridge but shouldn't hurt you too bad.

Wait I though you meant 100-500M when you said small. No absolutely take the hedge fund internship.

Bro. Take the "small" hedge fund ($2-3b is not all that small btw) and don't look back. The work will be more interesting than C1 and you can talk about in banking interviews how you became interested in public companies during your hedge fund internship etc. I had a lower MM IB internship my sophomore year in a random city, but still got interviews with great firms. Please take the hedge fund role, as a favor to all of us at WSO
