Israeli Growth Equity intern vs. U.S. Venture Capital intern??

Hello everyone,

I recently received offers for a summer internship from an Israeli Growth Equity firm ($1bln - $4bln AUM) and a small venture capital firm in my local city in the U.S. ($400mil - $600mil AUM).

Not quite sure which one to take or will provide me a better opportunity in the future? Would an Israeli GE internship at a good company look better on my resume or would companies prefer a smaller VC firm operating in the U.S. if my desire is to work at a GE firm in the U.S.

My background: non-target Sophomore Desire to work at the best Growth Equity firm I can get into in the U.S.
