Should I pursue this Global Commercial Banking summer analyst position?

Hi guys,

I was recently given an offer for this position and I dont know if I should do it if I want to recruit full-time in fall for investment banking. The description is below and I was hoping someone might be able to tell me how relevant or how it might be looked at compared to say an internship at BlackRock. Thanks!!!!
