Should I take this internship? - Starting with data entry

So im going to find out tomorrow if i receive an offer. Right now i just finished my freshmen year at a junior college. my question is that, if i receive an offer from the hedge fund i interviewed at, should i take it? its only 2 people in the office. THey said i would start out doing data entry and they would teach me more than that, but they said i could learn a lot. Should i take it?

thank you

As a rising sophomore I don't see why you shouldn't take it. The experience will definitely look good on your resume going into junior year SA recruitment.

Is there anything else you are considering applying to?

 

sorry junior college as in community college... it means i would complete my 2 years of lower division here, then transfer to a 4 year school and complete my upper division, and i would get my degree from the 4 year university
