Quick Question about my Resume

Alright, so I just finished up my sophomore year in college and I'm planning to send out my resume to some banks in my area to try to line up a last minute PWM internship for this summer. My question is about in which order I should put my two work experiences.

One of them was at a local commercial bank in the summer of 2012. The other was for an apartment management company in the summer of 2013. Unfortunately, I wouldn't say either is really all that relevant to PWM or IB (my end goal).

But, I feel that the internship at the bank in 2012 is more relevant than my job from the 2013 summer. Should I put the 2012 work experience as the first one listed, or should I still list them in order of most recent, with the 2013 work experience first and then the 2012 work experience?

Appreciate the help.

You always list the most recent job first, regardless of relevance.
