Does internship at PwC in audit help with getting an IB job?

So I'm currently at a T50 school studying business administration and planning to transfer to schools like Cornell and Vanderbilt to study Econ next year. I have a decent GPA but lack of activities/work experiences in the finance/business field. I was just wondering if having an internship experience in private equity audit at a Big 4 (let's say PwC) would look good or a financial analyst intern at Marto-HG Digital Asset Group (crypto asset hedge fund), in terms of transferring to prestigious college for econ major and landing an IB job in the future.

Which one will be more helpful for both a college transfer application and future career in IB? Any suggestions?

Thank you!
