Non-target Senior Break into Trading***

I am a senior at a non target school near NYC. I am a finance major with a 3.2 and i started an investment club on campus. I have been trying to do some research on prop trading firms vs. sales and trading at BB and i was wondering what the best way to go about it is? What are my chances of actually getting recruited onto a trading desk? any advice helpful.
