How to solve the "can’t get experience without a job; can’t get a job without experience" problem?

Talk to career services at your school. Get a job on campus. Talk to a temp agency.

Take an entry level job where they expect to train you. Do volunteer work. With regard to assuming they don't want to hire you because you have no work experience: think again.

If you are willing to work and commit to a schedule that a job requires, there are literally thousands of companies out there who will be happy to train you. Things that are barriers are more likely your availability, how you present yourself (confident, able, willing, smart are good things to show), and what your application looks like when you hand it in.

You need to be realistic about your career search and not only target entry-level positions, but openly declare that is what you are looking for. To an employer, it closes the gap between expectations and they don't need to worry that you're looking for something more. Receptionist/office assistant positions are typically easier, as they don't always require a large amount of experience.

Try to find positions that are data entry or clerical, as these routine roles are easily trainable regardless of your past experience. And don't overlook your interview skills and resume - Status Next can be a great help with that. - Mike.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
