If you were a college student again, what would you do differently to prepare you for your field?
I would definitely take on more opportunities to know people and make more friends. In the business world, its not so much what you know but also who you know. Networking in school is one of the best platform to form meaningful connections for future relationships.

Find the subject matter expert and interview them to find out what are the things they do to become an expert. Research has shown that in order to become a SME, you need to invest 10,000hrs to learn about it. So after finding how, its practice, practice and practice.
