how does a fortune 500 finance internship look

I was wondering how something like this would look on a resume for summer analyst recruiting. I have a financial Co op, which is six months and a lot of responsibility, for one of the top fortune 500 co's. When looking over resume's, is this something that gets noticed or not. what are the chances of getting a first round with this as the lead off on my resume? your opinions would be greatly appreciated.

It sounds pretty solid in the sense that it won't be completely overlooked as a no-name, but again, it is more about quality than name (when comparing different intern positions). In other words, you will really want to articulate the quality of your experience, and the actual projects that you worked on (and your direct contribution to the team). If your experience offers some interesting experiences and the opportunity to work on some analytically challenging and detail-specific (skills bankers need) projects, then it sounds good to me. Regarding a Fortune 500, in general, I mean different names will obviously carry different weight, but, in general, I don't think you have to worry. Again, articulate your experiences well and get in good with your seniors (for recs later), and you should be on your way.

Thanks for the insight. For the sake of completeness I'll reply to this thread again after junior year OCR wraps up in about 9 months and let you guys know how things actually went down. This way future people looking for the same information will be able to find it easily, and from another first-hand source.
