I've written a lot about this. If you want a job, start applying early. But don't feel like you have to get one immediately. If you're sufficiently motivated, consider taking time off to work on your own projects.

1. Don't take all CS classes. Try other subjects and diversify your knowledge. 2. Get good at sending emails. It can help you get a job, get contacts or just gather information. 3. Even though you should take non-CS courses, that doesn't mean you should get a double major. It's not always worth it. 4. Make sure you like CS. Having experience is a good sign, but people can be advanced or good at a subject they don't like. Make sure you like it even when it gets tough.
