Tough to say exactly – likely depends on specific situations.

Internal employees who are kind enough to pass forward your resume directly to HR allow for HR to have the understanding that a current employee is vouching/pushing someone forward directly, instead of them having to sift your resume from a large pile. HR/recruiter will ultimately decide if you get the interview, although depending on how senior the person is/your relationship with them, strings could be pulled (i.e. a partner saying "please give this kid an interview.")

It is always better for someone to internally recommend you either by contacting HR/forwarding your resume than to hope to have your resume picked from a pile.
