Depending on the field, it may be worth considering doing unpaid work experience for a few weeks, just to have something to put on your CV. The other option, of course, is to go for a job that doesn't require any experience at all!

Temping agencies can be fairly useful, but if you are looking for something in the secretarial field, they do make you do typing and other tests to ensure you're up to scratch. If you can't make 40 words per minute touch typing, they don't let you through.

It really depends what kind of job you're trying to get. A high profile job in busines, law, etc... will always require experience. But if you're just looking to earn a bit of cash you can easily be a waiter/waitress or a shop assistant, which doesn't usually require any experience.
It's actually quite a big problem for university graduates, and many have to work very hard -sometimes even unpaid- just to gain the experience that employers require.

Hi, my name is Sunil. Are you like me? Trying to make m.oney on the Internet but only experiencing very few to no satisfying results ? After all, how many times a day are you BOMBARDED with some lame "get-rich-quick" scheme on the Internet? I have found a foolproof method how anyone can easily
make an extra $500 or even $1.000 every week with 15 minutes of their time and create a substantial monthly income.

I CAN GIVE YOU GUARANTEE THAT IF YOU DO NOT MAKE MONEY USING MY METHOD I WILL REFUND EVERY SINGLE DIME OF YOUR ORDER.

I will give you access to surveys that only take 15 minutes to complete and you will make an average $75 - $250 per survey.

My surveys & company database is so large that you can make thousands every single week by only completing a few of them.

Why should I release this information you may ask ? Aren't you arming your competition ?

I have been so disappointed by the lack of kept promises that all those make m.oney programs made. For many years I have spent a fortune on M.LMs, get-rich-quick, paid to read email,
newspaper & stuff envelope scams that I finally want to make and end to it. I know how you feel.

The CashCreation System will bring you a steady flow of m.oney 15 minutes from NOW or your m.oney back! Now before I get to deep into the details let me tell you what the CashCreation System ISN'T. And believe me - I'm going to give you access to a lot of easy-to-complete surveys that will bring you $75 - $250 each!

It is NOT a promote my affiliate program to make m.oney!
It is NOT a NOT A Get-Rich Quick Scheme!
It is NOT a Face To Face Selling program of Any Kind!
It is NOT a Trial Offer to sign up for!
It is NOT some garbage product that refers you to purchase other garbage products.
It is NOT a M.LM, a Pyramid Scheme, Gifting or anything else like that.
It is NOT like anything you have ever seen.

YOU DO NOT EVEN NEED TO SELL ANYTHING!

It really is "Catch-22" - can't get a job without experience, yet most jobs require you to have experience to fill their positions. Go to an agency - or a YTS scheme - to get the experience you need.

~ I know! I can see your frustration! These adverts that say "experience required.." - how do you ever get started!!
~ Look for a 'break'. A job that is somehow associated with what you want to do
~ (for example; sweeping up the hair - if you want to become a hairdresser)
~ and hope that from that, you can step up to gain experience in the job you are interested in.
~ The older you get, the worse it gets!
Good luck!

Apply for jobs, in the application forms there is an area to write why you should be considered for the job (or something along those lines). Blag your way, you are using a PC right now therefore you are experienced with PC's ... get an office job. You speak to your friends and family? If so, you have communications skills etc ... blag blag blag.

what type of job are you looking for? And a lot will depend on your age. I'm working with a home based business. Not bad. I have to work, I get a paycheck each month on what I have done. At first it is small but you can build it into what you want. from $150 a month to $15,000. The choice is yours.

If you want more info. (no scams, no inventory, no parties, no motivational meetings.) email me at tmichael7@cox.net

Volunteer to gain some experience then I hope you have Remedy Intelligent staffing in your area.They helped me find my first job. My resume is filled with temp jobs and I had one paid position which was filing from one of my former contacts that I met by volunteering. So, it helps if you have connections. anyway, I registered with OfficeTeam and they told me that the staffing managers couldn't help me because I had no experience except filing. That's when my luck changed. So, I hope you have Remedy in your area.

I believe there may be a post becoming available early next year in central London, apparently knowing bug*er all is a definite advantage. Applications should be sent to a Mr A Blair, Whitehall in the first instance.
