Heres some advice....pimp yourself out for free in your 3rd year of uni, many companies are more than happy to take on students, even 1 day a week...and for 3-4 days a week during the uni holidays. I dont think any company says no to FREE employees

If you can prove yourself in that time and build a working relationship with people within the company, you'll get yourself a job after you've finished your degree

The company that I'm currently consulting for is run by the marketing manager of a company I did my work experience with....and as of tomorrow, I'm consulting at that original company once again. I also applied for the full time job I mentioned previously, at that same company, and my chances are good because I know the people there and I know the work, having worked there for free previously for a good 6 months, and then again later as paid a freelance consultant
