From Audit Intern to IB Intern

Hey Guys

I am currently working as an Audit Intern at a Big Four in Zurich, Switzerland, but my ultimate goal is it to get into IB. I already received several rejections from BB and Boutiques. I know it's super important to network and I already had one interview due to my network. But it still hasn't paid off. Is there any advice how to improve my chances or to be even more precise, any company or industry I should join to get one step further towards IB?
