Do you know what you want to do after your studies? Maybe you do, or you don't have a clue. The good news is that there is no wrong answer to this question. Being a student means that you're still learning, and the best way to is to try. Attending competitions can help you find your dream job, get in contact with future employers, or maybe help find out what you definitely don't want to do.
