Transition from Intern to Analyst

I am nearing the 6 month mark in my internship at a boutique investment bank in la. This bank is reputable in its own right and I've closed 2 deals during my time there.

I am now looking to apply for Analyst positions. I believe that it's time to start making some serious money because I am qualified to do so.

My questions is, how do I make this transition? So far, I have refined my resume and it looks like it's in good shape.

Any sort of advice on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Oh and please be mindful that I don't mind working as an Analyst for small investment banks.

Thank you in advance.

Hey! Thanks for the reply.

My apologies for not being specific. I have been a commuter from Orange County to LA County for almost the last 6 months. It has been brutal to say the least since it takes me approximately 2 hours to get there. I would be exceptionally happy to move forward to A full time analyst opportunity with my current firm in LA but I am looking to relocate back to the OC.

Any advice during this transitioning process will be of immense help! Thank you.
