Will an internship at this firm be relevant to IB?

I was considering interning at a place called Burning Glass Technologies. Essentially, they analyze labor markets and connect people with jobs. It sounds iffy but this is the description for the potential position:

"Interns become immersed in one research area, such as Finance or Sales, which allows activities such as:
• Discovering important qualifications for different careers
• Differentiating and grouping occupations based on core work activities
• Analyzing career transitions
• Creating wireframes and diagrams of the US labor market"

Would this help or just be stupid to have on my resume? I can trade this for a part time job as a sales assistant/connector at another firm anyways. (This other part time job is free to me for a while so I'm wondering, if this internship at Burning Glass Technologies will benefit me at all, if I should just take it and then once it's done, it's done)

Is this just a fancy way of calling themselves "Burning Glass Staffing Firm"?
