sophomore summer internship advice

Hello,

I am a non-target and non-diversity sophomore student in NYC with a 3.57 GPA. I did a internship recently at a search fund this fall semester. From January to May, I will be interning at a no name boutique investment bank. With recruiting being later this year, what would you recommend I should do to boost my chances for IB recruiting. I was thinking of doing a internship at another no name investment bank during my sophomore summer. What do y'all recommend?
