Any advice for rising sophomore? CAN

I'm a rising sophomore in Canada at a semi target (think Schulich/Rotman/Laurier/Waterloo) and for my freshman summer am doing an internship at my provincial/state government in public policy. Working on developing new tools and oversight frameworks related to risk/audit/monitoring/payments for a transfer payment program(social assistance/welfare)

Any advice on recruiting and what kind of internships I can get for sophomore summer?

Currently recruiting for big4 audit for sophomore summer, but am open-minded.

Stats: 3.9+ GPA but lacking on extracurriculars, planning to get more involved this year
