CME GCC Intern offer as a Sophomore, Translate well to IB?

Recently received an offer for an internship position at CME Group’s Global Command Center (Chicago) as a sophomore. I plan on going the IB route, and have quality relationships / ins at about 5 Investment Banking firms for the upcoming 2019 summer analyst recruiting season. How would this CME internship look in terms of recruiting for IB? Should I attempt to leverage this offer to move towards a position more valuation related? Or is CME’s name / the market based work I will be doing enough look good? I appreciate any feedback.

Investment Banking Short Resume Review / Recap

“Daniel really took his time to help me. Our session ran well past the scheduled time, and he went through every part of my resume in detail. He didn't just fix what was there; he also showed me how to think about it going forward, so I can keep improving it on my own as my experience grows. He was diligent, careful and very patient with all my questions, and at the same time kind and easy to talk to. It was clear why he has been so successful, and he shared what he knows openly. Honestly, if I hadn't met with Daniel, I think I would have missed out on a lot of opportunities down the line. He is an amazing mentor and I'm grateful for the time he put in.”

Investment Banking Mock Interview

“Great guy, kind and easy to interact with. To be honest, I did have a hard time understanding his accent for the first 5 minutes but I was able to quickly pick it up after that so my session was not affected. He was great at simulating an actual interview environment and asked great question tailored to me in real time. He was also very very very helpful with the actionable steps that he outlined during the last 5 minutes of our call. I am currently in the process of booking another session with him to make sure my technicals are absolutely bulletproof.”
