How should I Feel/What to do next?

Hello everyone, Today I went to a career fair at my school ( a non-target) and tried to talk to companies. Being a freshman finance major I have no experience, understandable. But what happenes when sophomore year comes with no finance experience? How will it be viewed?

On another note, what are some things you people have done or heard of freshman year?
