Ideal summer internship

Was wondering what type of summer internship would look best for IB recruiting.

If I already have experience with a regional boutique, would it be worth to do another IB one over this summer? Or would something like a hedge fund be more helpful? I feel like two IB internships could be od

It prolly doesn’t matter too much and isn’t that deep but I was just wondering. Would rather not do random bitch work at a small bank if there’s no value add lol

For IB recruiting: notable IB (sophomore program at BB for example) > HF/PE > VC > corp dev / commerical banking > PWM >>> all non financial internships.
