Sophomore Internship 2015

Hey WSO,

I'm a sophomore at a top target (HYPW) w/ a 3.9 GPA in Math/Stat interested in working in consulting full time, hopefully at MBB. Over my freshman summer, I worked for an smaller (BB internship to get a solid name on my resume, but haven't gotten any interviews yet (seems like most SA recruiting is done?).

With that in mind, as it is January, what opportunities should I pursue to make myself the most attractive candidate for MBB Junior internships?

Should I still pursue BBs (network heavily now), return to my old firm (not in a location I really want to be in again though), seek T2/T3 consulting (not exactly sure how to find opportunities there), or study abroad (thinking of LSE program)?

 

It was a formal program. The position targeted sophomores and juniors but I emailed the hiring manager and talked about my interest in the company and got an interview.

BCG internships for sophs appears to be diversity focused (not a URM) and Big 4 seem to be on the Tax/Audit side (haven't taken any formal accounting classes)?

As long as I am doing better then I am feeling and I do it to prove them wrong.
