Credit Risk as a Sophomore

So currently I am approaching my sophomore summer and I have an internship with a BB in Credit Risk, which I know is generally considered an MO role. However, I want to go into IBD rather than Credit Risk.

My question is, would a sophomore doing credit risk look good during my search for an internship during the summer before my junior year?

Do you guys have any advice on how to move from Credit Risk to IBD?
