BEST Internships for the Brand

Hi everybody, Im a student at a top Business School in Europe and want to work in the real estate industry. I have a construction industry background. My question to you is:

Which companys have the best "brand" for my CV, if I want to get into REPE ? As far as i know, RE Aquisition/Transaction are the best devisions for an internship in my situation, is this correct? Internships at big PE firms are probably not yet avaible for me, so my question is: Which is more useful for me, a transaction internship at a big Asset Manager (if yes, are there some which are "better" than others?), or should I complete an internship at one of the big advisors (JLL, CBRE, Big4..) ?

Thank you for your time, I am also open for new ideas regarding my situation!
