IB Timeline as an Early Graduate

I am currently a freshman at a Semi-Target school in Pennsylvania. I took college courses during high school, so I will be graduating a year early with a double major in Finance and Economics. I have been applying to internships as a sophomore with Class of 2022 written on my resume, but I was wondering how I would be affected. I know most Summer Analysts get a job during their Junior Year summer, but that will be when I graduate, so I'm not sure how it would work. I also heard that some people take that extra year to travel. What would be the best recommended course of action? I have travelled a fair bit recently, and I would like to go straight into the work force before going back for my MBA a few years down the line. Thanks in advance.
