        Taking on similar roles - during the holidays or while you apply for higher-level roles after graduation

        Seeing what the top companies in the field require - start by looking for case studies from the big firms, and note what backgrounds and skills their current employees have

        Using your contacts - university professors, those you met on work experience, people you can approach through social media or LinkedIn - they're all potentially the stepping stone to your next role, and they might be happy to help you
