Just a piece of advice I wish I was given before I graduated college.

If you have your heart set on a certain career, begin looking for internships at large companies in the industry you want to work. Most large companies have internship programs year round. This will not only satisfy the internship requirements for graduation AND give you skills you can put on a resume, it will expose you to a company that may hire you right out of school. In this day and age where college graduates have a hard time finding a job that actually fits their major, having a toe in the door of a company that you interned for, is nearly priceless.

The summer between your junior and senior year, drop everything you are doing and get an internship. I wish someone had coached me to do the same.
