What is the biggest mistake that undergraduate accounting majors make in their first two years of college that hurts their chances of landing a Big 4 internship and even a Big 4 job after graduating from college?

I am a current high school senior committed to a large university for Fall 2026. My goal is to land a Big 4 internship by my junior-year summer, so I have a better chance of receiving return offers from companies like PWC and KPMG.

How can I combine my business/corporate communication degree with my passion for animals to create a meaningful career, and what steps should I be taking now—such as internships, networking, or skill-building—to stand out to employers in that space?

I am a senior at Baruch College, I have never had any internships, and I feel quite stuck on what I want to do with my degree/what exact fields interest me. I just know my interest in animals.
