What can I do to improve my chance of getting hired at a PE or HF?

I am currently a UCSD management science major going on my senior year.
My projected UC GPA is 3.3 by the time I graduate. WIll I stand a chance of getting hired at a PE or HF?
If my GPA from my community college is also counted as the cumulative GPA then I can get around 3.5 to 3.6 GPA
I have 1 internship as an investment banker intern at a southeast asian boutique level securities.
Another internship at an insurance company.
What could I do during my senior year to increase my chance of getting hired, I know my GPA is not great. How can I make up for this?
