Freshman Year Internships in the UK

I am planning to go for Freshman Year internships for Big4/T2/MBB. I know that they are really hard to get but I will try my best in all possible directions. What do firms look for in freshman year candidates? What particular skills are they looking? Personally, I have a generalist skillset, I am gunning for a Social Science Degree (Bsc Economics and Philosophy) and a very Economics and Philosophy heavy background as well as I have a CS background as well (Python, SQL, MATLAB, Literally Mastered Excel and PPT during last two years and even one of my leadership positions was the "Cyber and IT Head of my Operations" at my School and that too during zoom era☠️).
