Getting that first internship really helps you get others. And the internships should make finding a real job much easier too.

Thanks! Yeah, last year the process often felt quite demoralizing, but it's been much better this year.

No one wants to take a chance on a freshman. Tbh I wouldn't either if I ran a company. They're too much of an unknown
