Hi there!
Do you know about “informational interviews”? You should. It’s where an early career (or pre-career) person reaches out to someone that has a job they think they might like, or want to get into, and have questions about. They’re super awesome. I did a bunch when I was in late grad school and didn’t know what I wanted to be when I grew up, and people were SO NICE. And helpful.
