Breaking Back Into Banking

Hello fellow monkeys. I have a question for you all. I am currently working in the billing office of a well-known law-firm in the NYC area for about 3 months. Could not find banking job out of college so took law-firm gig. Graduated from a non-target and had a internship my junior year at a boutique IB in NYC. In a couple months I want to start looking at banking jobs as thats what I have always wanted to do. In terms of banking Im interested in wealth management and asset management. What are my best options in terms of routes to take? Any shot of me getting a job in those industries? Thanks in advance!!
