Is it Too Late to Find a CB SA Position for Summer 2024?

Hey all, I'm a rising junior and had a superday with a MM last week for CB that I have yet to hear back from but I don't have my hopes up. It consisted of two 30 minute interviews and I think I'm likely to get dinged due to the fact my first interview was a little spotty. The second one went great and the interviewer told me to reach out to him, but I know there isn't much room for error and the interviewer who told me to reach out never ended up getting back to me. I typically wouldn't sweat this because we all have bad interviews, but it's pretty late in the cycle and I don't know of many firms that still have applications for CB SA's still open.

I'm not sure what my course should be from here. I go to non-target (Michigan State) so I know my opportunities are limited, but I also have a 4.0 and two internships in credit admin at a regional bank and thus don't see myself as a lost cause quite yet.

I didn't do much networking and relied mostly on online applications which I now realize was a major mistake, but I worry it may too late to start reaching out to people now to make any meaningful difference.

Any insight on what I could or should doing going forward would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to give up on my CB ambitions quite yet.
