Energy Major Internship

Hi,

Sophomore college student here. Pursuing an internship with an energy major. I’ve been talking to the recruiter, and it’s basically up to me to decide what division I want to work with/for. I was thinking of working with a Ventures/Innovation-type team, an Energy Sales&Trading team, or a Corp. Fin. team, but also open to other suggestions. What’s the best type of field to pursue an internship? My goals are: PE or VC after undergrad preferably, IB at a top BB or energy boutique if not and then transition into aforementioned categories. 
 

thanks for your help
