Looking to break into Finance and Consulting

Hello everyone! My name is Mhyles and I am an accountancy undergraduate from SMU graduating this June 2022.

Was a Finance Analyst intern under local unicorn SEA for almost a year then came back the next summer under its subsidiary as a Retail Finance Analyst intern. Looking to break into consulting or banking (finance but not Corp Fin if possible) in general and was wondering if you guys have any tips?

Haven't really been exposed to that industry as I've always played more consulting/data/accounting roles in my previous internships.

Thanks!
