How good does a top Hedge Fund internship look?

wondering what the perception is for having an internship at a celebrated hf (think Greenlight, Elliott, Baupost) in portfolio valuation? might it make breaking in out of undergrad more feasible? also, how about for looking to do SA programs at a BB or EB? TIA
