Gynielle’s Answer

Congrats on the next step in your education. You are able to apply and attend most graduate schools without any experience in your career. Each school is slightly different so I recommend narrowing down your options and checking those particular schools. I would also recommend doing an internship just for the experience you would gain in your intended career field, I know my internships in college were insightful and helped impact my career choices.
I would reach out to your college's career center or your personal advisor for help finding an internship, often times they have partnerships with local organizations or even alumni in your field that could possibly give you a job.

Hope this helps and great work.
