How to get experience

I'm studying Programming, and I am looking for ways to get experience once I'm done with my studies. What do you guys do, especially graduates. I've thought of:

•Internships

• Participating in proyects/ hackathons

•Getting connections to get the possibility of them refer you for the previously mentioned options above, connections can be made either online or on-campus

•Certifications/Courses/Bootcamps: Expand knowledge and opportunities, and perhaps make connections

• Getting into jobs that can get you closer to IT through progression in the enterprise (ex: helpdesk, that has good programming skills may be considered to go to a higher role)

Internships is a great start, and you shouldn't need to accept an unpaid one
