Which Choice to Make?

I posted this in Ibanking discussion also, figured I should post it here too.

Which is a better choice for a summer internship in NYC (im interested in trading):

-Brown Brothers Harriman trading internship

or

-Barclays Capital risk management internship and then get to know some traders at Barcap and try to make the move into trading for full time

Is it even possible to move from a risk management internship to a full time trading job?
