How much do you need to know to intern?

Question

In my 4-h program one of my projects is interning in my choice career, obviously software development but I'm really nervous. I don't personally know any software devs and I'm not super confident in my skills yet because I'm still learning. First I'm going to interview a Dev and shadow one but how much knowledge must you have to intern as one? Do you to be able to do what a graduate or normal employee could do it do they just kinda mentor you? any insight would be much appreciated. I'm an hs sophomore.
