Fall/Spring/Summer analyst role

I’m a senior at an ivy target school. I discovered banking late and knew I wanted to do banking sophomore year ie no internship sophomore year. I was completely new to the recruiting time line and season. Covid happened, things got complicated and I couldn’t land an internship junior summer. Senior year has arrived. I want to start cold calling small banks to see if I can land a fall, spring or even summer internship. The summers that I had no internship I was able to do something finance/accounting related for resume and took summer classes. I know I am more than capable for an analyst intern role, even unpaid at a small shop during fall or spring semester. Any advice that can help me break into IB. I’m not going to give up, but I would appreciate advice from those who have been in my position before and made their way into IB.
