Having great personal projects is key. We're really fortunate to be in an industry where you can so easily showcase your skills & talents.
Through my interviews with startups (I'm a college Junior), they were much much more interested in my side-projects than anything school-related. I highlight Projects at the very top of resume, then past Internships, then school-related activities.

This goes for non-students too. We are very interested in people that have pet projects.
