New Summer Opportunity - Urgent Advice Needed

Hi guys, right now I am currently doing a PWM internship at a GS/MS/UBS on a contract-based position (which I can "resign" from at any time without any explicit penalty).

I have just been asked by a networking contact (at a $2b fund manager) to send her my resume for a summer analyst position. Obviously, I would quit the PWM job in an instant if I had this offer in hand, and I don't need the reference since I worked at a ML/MS/UBS PWM last summer as well.

The question is, do I send her my resume with my current PWM internship (been here for 2 days now) on the resume, or should I exclude it completely? I don't know how they will judge things, but I don't want them to look down on me or reject me for having a job and looking to quit.

How do you guys think I should play this situation?

 
HarvardOrBust:
I wouldn't even mention that you started a position. If you tell her that, she could think that you're impulsive and would ditch her firm for a better opportunity.

Yes, this is exactly what I have in mind. I already have the pwm (and a bit of other relevant experience), so this position adds no value to my resume other than showing that I'm currently employed and not sitting around doing nothing all summer.

I will definitely leave it off and fail to mention it. If I do get this offer, I will just leave my pwm contract and be done with it.
