Advice - M&A/Corp Dev at a F1000

Hey everybody,

I accepted an mergers and acquisitions internship at a F1000 company this week. I was curious to know people's opinion on such a position. Does it look good when applying for full time? My ultimate goal would to either get into advisory or investment/Asset Management. I had a pwm internship at a BB, and worked at an exchange overseas.This internship promised a lot of hands on work, practice with modeling, and would give me a different experience. I was hoping to leverage the analytical skills I will learn in this internship for any other future full time interviews straying away from M&A's. Anybody's opinion would be great! Thanks for all the help

internship is great.

call it "Fortune 1000"... fortune 600 sounds a bit toolish.

Money Never Sleeps? More like Money Never SUCKS amirite?!?!?!?
