Need Advice As A Student

Hi, I will start studying in one of europes top business schools(excluding UK) in a month. I want to break into commodity trading especially oil trading. Unfortunately I dont have any extracurriculars in commodity trading. I did two internships in high school -one in accounting and one in real estate- I also know python and can build basic 3 statement models but they are not really related to this field. I am not an EU or UK citizen so I am quite worried about job prospects. Is it really too hard for foreigners to find jobs in this field. I know countries such as UAE, Saudi Arabia have big oil companies how are employment aspects there for new grads. And lastly do you have any activity suggestions? It is kinda a niche field so I am having a hard time finding something to do that can look good in my CV. Thank you in advance I am looking out for your suggestions.
