Is it common for undergrads applying for an internship to have a TS/SCI already, and how much more competitive would it make one for an internship?

I’m curious if it would be more advantageous to work on the civilian fed side before moving over to a company like Anduril or if it’s worth just going for a job at Anduril? For example IC product manager for 3-5 years and then go contractor vs starting at anduril and working your way up.
