Tips for incoming IB interns

What should you do to make the most of your internship and maximise your chances of a return offer? Are there any random tips or things you’d wish you had know prior to your internship?

I’m starting at an EB in London next week and pretty unsure what to expect. Would really appreciate some advice.

Thanks!
