What would you do? - Transferring to a non-target Fall 2011

I plan on transfering to a non-target Fall 2011 - starting my junior year and majoring in Finance. I don't have any expereince, and have somewhat decent extracurricular's from my previous school. I was wondering what people would do to land a SA position. Things to build my resume. Some things I had in mind were to get actively involved with the student run portfolio, and maybe try to get a NYSSA chapter on campus and compete in the IRC. Those are a few things. Any input/feedback would be appreciated.

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
