Microsoft FRP to Deferred MBA?

Hello everyone! I am currently entering my senior year in college as a finance major and am interning at Microsoft for the summer. I am on track to get a return offer to join their Financial Rotation Program and am also eyeing various deferred MBA programs. I have read that the deferred MBA's like to target students who are going to work in non-traditional work environments like operations, technology, etc.. Would Microsoft FRP be a strong resume item (of course along with strong recs, and solid GMAT)? Thanks!

Would agree with the above. I might be wrong here, but I think that Microsoft FRP is actually a pretty typical, cookie cutter internship that wouldn't make you a non traditional candidate. If you're doing SWE at Microsoft that's a whole different story, but I think 2+2 is aimed usually at diversity/non-traditional/golden path type kids.
