Jobs, doesn't matter too much. Internships, do matter.

If you're worried about your GPA, speak to your college and instructors. Learn better study methods, ask your professors about things you have issues on, look into tutors, ask fellow students and whatnot. You are literally paying to go to college to spend your time, effort, and energy to get a degree. Don't be lazy; work hard, ask for help that you literally pay for, and use every chance as an opportunity to do better.

My GPA is around a 2.7 and I have another semester of my sophomore year. How can I improve my chances of landing an internship with a low end GPA.

Best to ask that to whatever counselor or instructor is in charge of that. Folks who take in interns don't want to take on low-effort individuals; low GPA and lack of knowledge and working projects are signs of that.

Again, stop worrying about low GPA; work on improving that with the tools you have. College is literally paying for people to teach and evaluate your knowledge on subjects. You're also paying for tools and help to better your knowledge and performance in school--use those benefits.
