What are my chances of landing a good entry level job in the financial services industry?

I am a junior at a top 50 US university completing my B.A with a double major (Econ & Telecomm) and a minor (business). My academic background is not stellar and I will probably graduate with a 2.8/2.9 GPA, my major GPA on the other hand should not be too bad, maybe around the 3.3 mark. I aslo have significant work experience since I’ve worked part time at a managerial position throughout my time at college and would have completed three paid internships in finance by the time i graduate.
My problem is that I am a international student and all my internships have been abroad as well.I can’t seem to find anyone who can realistically tell me my chances of employment here (as an analyst or smthn similar). I was hoping I could get some insight from ppl who have real world experience with the job market as opposed to career counselors etc. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks
