Starting Career in ER??

I'm a third-year college student and have been interested in finance and wanted to know where a good area would be to start after college. I don't have much experience other than studying and learning about certain topics related to the market and businesses.

I want to end up possibly in HF position, and I've heard that ER gives good experience. Is this true? Or are other fields able to provide valuable information that leads to HF careers?
