Will a CFA help me get a Finance job?

I am senior in college from a small university in western carolina. I plan to register for the 1st level of the CFA. My hopes are that along with that and me knowing Englsih,Spanish (I’m also planning to study either Portuguese or French) will help me land a job in Finance as a trader or stock borker (I eventually want to work for a hedge fund as a trader and eventually portfolio manager).

Any thoughts or ideas on other things that can help me stand out from the crown would be greatly appreciated.
