Sophomore Summer: Take F20 Corp Strat Offer?

Current sophomore at a target - recently received a 2021 internship offer in corporate strategy at an F20 company. Assuming I cannot get any of my other processes accelerated, will this role put me in a competitive position for junior summer recruiting, compared to the standard no-name IB or LMM PE?

Alternatively, should I keep recruiting in the hopes of landing something on the buy/sell-side, likely at a small/unknown shop?

Thanks so much for your help!
