Hi Kiana! 100% agree with what Kristine has shared here as well. I would also highly encourage you to do your research. Before you ever interview with an organization - understand what they do, why you want to work for them, and what questions you want answered! As much preparation as you can beforehand, the better!

Hi Kiana!
Your school probably has a career fair, which is a great place to start learning about different careers and finding an internship or co-op. At the fair, be confident and friendly. Your resume should make you stand out, so show your skills and your interest in the role or company. Include projects you've done or classes with clear results to highlight your abilities. Also, practice for interviews! Technical interviews might use the STAR format (Situation, Task, Action, and Result). The more you know about these, the better you'll perform in an interview.
