What can I do now?

I'm a sophomore in college right now, and majoring in finance, interested in ibanking.

My dad has a foot in the door for me with an ibank. The guy said they already have an intern for this upcoming summer (I asked him about it in December), but would keep me in mind. What types of things can I do now to make sure that I can get the internship for next summer? I don't want to be a pest emailing him and stuff, asking him what I can do etc. What do you guys think?

As far as what? Join a club at school? Take more finance classes?

What types of summer type jobs do I-banks like? I've been a teller the past 2 summer and I'm trying to get away from it, so is there any other types of jobs they particularly like?

 

i think someone deleted my prior post. but you should start trading/investing on your own. I got into trading options when i was a soph in college, and I put it on my resume..something like activley manage option portfolio for PA.

Every place I interviewed seemed to be very impressed. helped me land a spot.
