Network to get a foot in the door (you mentioned this already). As soon as you've got an interview booked in, your gpa no longer matters. Then, it's all about practicing your cases. That's really all there is to it. On how to increase your actual chances, I would suggest a few things to consider: 1. What kind of work do you want to do, and therefore where do you want to work? "Consulting" is such a wide field. If you're going for MBB/T2/B4, your experience will probably land you an entry-level offer with the fresh grads.
