L/S HF Internship

Is doing an unpaid hf internship worth it? Definitely interested in fundamental public market investing and want to pursue it long-term, but I am concerned about the unpaid nature of the job. The firm looks legit.

Interesting, mind explaining why? Assuming this info, I would put HF intern when applying to bigger and more well knowned HF?
