How can I best relate to younger students, especially when working on group projects, when I am returning to school later in life?

How do people actually get started in the computer engineering industry?

I'm a junior computer engineering major starting the job and internship search. A lot of "entry-level" jobs and internships seem to have experience requirements. Does underlining personal projects and certifications really work? What am I supposed to do?
