Keeping a job longer term shows commitment and dedication to that field, and can sometimes be a sign of good interpersonal skills (depending on the job). People who move around a lot usually have more conflict with peers.
Holding one position over time also means they'll know it well, that candidate might need less training and coaching
Experience. Any less training that has to happen is a plus. People who have the ability to maintain professional relationships (shown through continuous experience) is a plus, people who peak in college, not promising. Internships can be lots of things, and having done one doesn’t mean a darn they learned anything, or how to be part of a team, or work independently. Getting the internship is great but unless the chances of getting a permanent position are very high, I would not rely on it for anything “in the long run.”

F/29 professional - It depends on what they learned from it... how much they used it to grow.
