How to get a job with no experience?

First you must decide what would be your ultimate career, not just a job. Apply to companys for their entry level positions. You will gain the experience of the general field.

Hopefully you can study, even if just one class, while gaining your experience. Most people think they can just jump right into the career they want without having to work their way up.

I have heard so many say, “I am holding out for a management position”, when they have no leadership experience whatsoever. Biggest trick is to keep trying to over succeed at your “job” in hopes to get promoted up the ladder. Once you have the general leadership abilities you can take them anywhere.
