PE vs PWM vs CRE internship

Have 3 offers not sure which one to take. PE is unpaid, PWM and commercial real estate are paid. I am a sophomore and am interested in IB. The PWM is w a large reputable bank.Both the PE and CRE internships are with small companies (10-30 people).What gives me the best resume experience for the future if I potentially pursue IB?

Any input is appreciated!
