Advice needed for a non-target international student

Hi guys, so I am an international student at a non-target. Will be graduating in May 2025. I had a internship at BB but couldn't convert it to full-time due to bank not sponsoring for h1b this year. I feel very lost at the moment. Doing networking but very few people from my uni are in IB. I am interested in recruiting in UK now as well. Would need advice from seniors or fellows who have been in same shoes. Would love to hear yall's thought.
