best entry level positions

Hi everyone, I come from a non target and my chances of getting into a BB IB right out of undergrad is highly unlikely, a MM is more likely but still hard considering i didnt set up myself for this field from early on. Im an accounting major and been networking w b4 for a long time and so ive been gearing myself into that field however i dont like it anymore. My question is, what finance jobs/fields could I get into from undergrad that will open a lot of doors or atleast clear the path for IB one day?

for reference i have an audit internship with a b4 next summer but im not sure if thats the path i want to follow anymore hence my question above

the end goal is to work in strategy one day
