IB internships to apply to in may...

Im an econ sophomore, (target school with slightly below 3.5 gpa but good experience and networking) who went through IB recruiting this semester (for summer 2026) and didn't have any luck. I got buy side internship for this summer (summer 2025) but they dont have analysts, I know allot of the big programs or banks have wrapped up recruiting (summer 2026) which is kinda freaking me out lmao. Im still putting in the work but every time I chat with someone they kind of infer to me that their companies recruiting has wrapped up. Im wondering where do people find smaller boutique IBs to apply to, or just anything that is still recruiting/will be recruiting, and where to go from here since Im not gonna give up.
