What would you prioritize if you were in college today aiming for a career in private investment (such as private equity or venture capital), and what skills, experiences, or steps matter most early on to maximize your chances of breaking in and standing out as a candidate?

I’m currently a college student exploring a career in private investment. I’m still early in the process and trying to better understand how to use my time effectively, especially when it comes to choosing internships, building relevant skills, and positioning myself for competitive roles after graduation. I’d really value any insights or advice from those who have been through this path.

What are some external programs outside of my school that I can participate or do to help break into a role in Private Equity Commercial Real Estate?

To add onto this I'm planning to get my real estate license (MA), and I have a spot at a firm will this help my chances for internship positions?

what are some investment banking/finance-related opportunities?

I currently study finance at Taylor University, Malaysia. And am interested in investing, banking, finance, economics, and how money works. I was looking for opportunities to work in a related sector such as investment banking or banks in general. Still, I want to know which countries have such opportunities in the finance sector and have demand for it, which can provide a good experience and ability to grow. I know generally that the US is the best option but there is too much competition at the moment so Im searching for the less competitive markets for ex: Europe, Canada, or Arabic countries? Besides that, I wanted to know what courses or work experience I should take during my studies to improve my resume and make me highly qualified in this field.
