This 100%, especially since OP says they are currently in uni. Make friends with other peeps in school, they’re the ones that will get you into other jobs even if it’s just a lead or recommendation. That’s why often you’ll see offices/companies with a few people from the same schools, lots of times they already knew each other.

And sometimes the uni friends are people that start their own company to do their own thing, once I worked in an office where 80% of the employees were just other dudes the owners went to school with.

TBH meeting people to get into working my field was the only valuable thing I got from going to college.
