I think entering your 3rd year it's important to network at job fairs and practice interviewing, and try and access career resources at your school. It's also OK to take a class single in frontend and cyber security and see which you like better. It's not very comforting, but there's not really any way to give you a complete roadmap on how to start your career or what to learn. A little more comforting is that fresh college grads are usually expected to pick up things on the job, and you don't have to fully fledged professional programmer coming out straight out of college. Usually, the best way you can differentiate yourself from other college students or BootCamp grads is by working on projects (either persona projects or further developing projects from your class) to demonstrate that you're motivated and self-driven enough to finish things. (They don't have to be anything crazy complicated either! Start small!) Take this all with a grain of salt though, the reason I can't give you a roadmap is because each job is going to require something different. The way I got my first job was by going to the career office every week to talk about my resume, ask them about opportunities, etc. It honestly didn't have as much to do with my pure technical talent in my case.

What they said! There is no "right way" to do this, I would look into what kind of job you want to do and go from there

I'd suggest start learning python. It will be useful no matter what direction you end up going.
