Advice for FT IB

Hey guys, I am a senior at a target. I have been going through banking interviews. Unfortunately despite having had numerous first rounds and superdays I have come up empty. I continue to keep realizing the kids who get the offers over me seem to have these small IB internship's that I didn't have. I had PWM experience at BB. I am now looking at the calendar and it being the middle of October I only have a few really small boutiques as options. Any advice for me going forward? Other options?
