IB Referrals

I understand that seniority (analyst vs. MD) influences the impact of a referral for your IB application. Does it make a difference if your referral is from another division or department within the bank? For example, would a referral from a MD in software at the bank you're applying to help your chances of getting an investment banking interview?
