I'll start this conversation!
The Career Development Office (CDO) is always around! They'll post some information over the summer in the admitted students portal to get you started thinking about where you want your internship to be, what you look for in a job, etc, but the "official" start to the CDO will be during Orientation where they'll give you an overview of what the office is supposed to help you achieve, how to schedule meetings with the Relationship Managers (RMs), information on internship searches and figuring that out, etc. Besides meetings with the RMs to figure that out, there are also second year Career Coaches who you can talk to about anything -- their internship, their past experiences and how they changed jobs/stayed in the same industry, and more granular things like interview prep & resume reviews.
While you do have to put in your own effort in order to find the internship you want, the CDO is there to offer you that guidance and that support -- beyond holding on-campus recruiting events. As a second year, you can even get appointments during the summer if you have questions about your internship! Once you get access to some of the internal platforms (after paying your deposit!), you'll get all sorts of information from them.
If you have specific industry questions, happy to chat offline about this too.

I'll add to this that the clubs are an enormous source of support here. I'd never even HEARD of innovation consulting before I came to SOM, and the Design & Innovation club really walked me through the process, and I'll be going to SY/Partners next year, full-time. The 2nd Years were incredibly helpful, and hopefully we've been equally, if not more helpful this year in passing along our knowledge and energy. The same also goes for the leaders of Consulting, Finance, Human Capital, Investment Management, Marketing, Media & Entertainment, and Tech Clubs. Trust us on this one - in addition to the CDO, your classmates will be your best resource in this realm.
