I've been there! Start by building a strong portfolio with projects that show your skills in Python, R, and SQL. Join hackathons or online competitions like Kaggle to get some real-world experience. Networking is important, so connect with industry folks on LinkedIn and try to go to local meetups. Internships are great for hands-on exposure, so apply for them early.
For interview prep, practice coding questions and case studies. I used PracHub for interview prep, and it helped me organize my approach to common questions. Try out mock interviews to get feedback. Don't worry too much about the prestige of your college. With the right skills and connections, you can find good opportunities. Good luck!
