Multiple small jobs/internships or one extended?

Hello all

I have to choose between staying in my current job - taking another part-time job - or taking a 6-months internship.
(I currently have 1 job and 1 internship on my CV)

I was wondering what would be most beneficial in terms of CV (all of them highly relevant).

a) Multiple short internships(3 months) and part-time jobs (½ year each) so i'll end up with 4-5 different experiences
b) Longer internships and a single part time job (1½ year) - so i'll end up with 2-3 more focussed experiences.

Best regards

/S

Coming from an intern at a small shop so take it for what you will.

If the jobs are all the same in terms of relevance/brand power, I would stick with the current one. This way you can take up more important work and build a stronger relationship with the people there so that they can pull strings for you come summer/graduate recruitment. There's no real point imo in taking up a new internship if you're moving to a similar shop and doing the same type of work.
