How to get an internship in IB and related positions?

This one question has always been there in my mind ever since I entered into my college.

Some say LinkedIn, others say cold mailing or referrals, but how and what exactly should be the effective procedure to land a good internship in IB and related positions?

Or is it just not possible for a pre-final year student to get a good enough internship in these fields?

I am open to all the ideas and suggestions that you bright minds have.
