Freshman looking for advice

Hello,

I’m currently a freshman at a semi-target/ non-target school and am looking for advice for what I can do to best increase chances of landing an IB or finance internship in the future. I currently have a 3.7 gpa and am a member of multiple finance clubs on campus. Thanks for the help.

 

Google around and find any relevant small shops in your area and reach out and see if they have interest in a summer intern. There are a number of smaller boutique banks and PE firms that take students in for the summer
