So, it seems that you are from a target school (EBS?), you will have an internship in Corporate Finance (TAS) in a well known company (Big4) and you will also have a PE start-up experience. To me, your CV sounds strong enough to receive interviews from good BBs. My friends and I got offers for internships in BB with worse CVs.

About the PE job, if working there your GPA will not be affected that much I think you should go for it.

I'm grateful that I have two middle fingers, I only wish I had more.
 

It's not the EBS, but another target school. My GPA is not overwhelming, though solid (85%, don't know what this means in GPA measures). I also have a leading position in a political party's youth organization.

The PE job would cost me some hours, as I would be the only analyst and would have flexible working hours (though the German law is very restrictive concerning working hours, so I don't think it will hurt my schedule too much).

its obviously WHU then, and finding your identity from the information you have provided would be easy at this point lolz.

Just take the PE gig

 

Then I think it is gonna give you something to talk about during interviews that looks different from the average applicant. I don't see why you should not go for it. I don't think it is gonna harm your application...

Is it WHU? I don't know if it is private or not.
