Can your connection get you in at citadel? There would be very few internships you could find that would be as relevant for you as that one. Obviously that might be some time off, i.e. Summer 2013. Your goal for next summer would be to network as much as you can with BBs and get into one of the sophomore programs that are offered.
And if he can't get you anything at citadel he probably can help you get something in trading at a BB or a medium size HF or smth. Then like leveRAGE said, get in Citadel in 2013
You're doing fine. Might be a bit hard to get an internship after your sophomore year.
As you probably know, all BBs recruit for summer analysts on Jan/Feb. For prop trading, JSC and DRW did campus recruiting when I was there. Apply to other "legitimate" prop trading firms (SIG, GETCO... you can search them all here) online, I got interviews this way. Definitely keep in touch with that guy at Citadel. Once you secure an interview, it's all up to you at that point.
"Heard on the Street" by Tim Crack is pretty much the bible for preparing for trading interviews.
