It doesn't hurt, ATF and DEA like to have guys who have previous LEO experience, although they do hire people directly from college, I feel that if I can get any work related experience WHILE I am in grad school, it would probably help out.
My internship at ATF over the summer was awesome. I worked alongside DEA and US Marshals quite a bit and would love to get on any of those three agencies. I'd be happy at any federal level job, but ATF, DEA, USM, and FBI would be my places of choice, of course I wouldn't turn down Border Patrol or Secret Service, but I'd prefer the former ones.
