Wrong approach for your first job or a basic starter position. Even a more advanced position is best found the old fashioned way. Try your local employment office, newspaper, and ask everyone you know.

interviewers want experience and if you don't have any then it will be a problem.
But why don't you volunteer so that you can get some experience and keep on looking for a paid job.
A recruiter friend told me that it is easier to find a job when you are in a job, as there is less pressure at interviews and employers know that you can deal with a work-place environment.
Websites can be good for finding a job but sometimes you need to speak to a professional face to face. Why don't you arrange to speak to a recruitment consultant - try Michael Page or hays.
Go to hays/michaelpage and register for jobs by e-mail so that jobs which meet your requirements are e-mailed to you every day. It makes the job search process less stressful.
Good luck!

Have you tried registering with a job agency.
They will probably ask you to come in and register and may have something for you, regardless of your experience. To find some in your area, just google, "job agency" and the town where you live.
Alternatively, you could try voluntary work to get some experience but obviously that's not an option if you need to be earning money.
Good luck with the job hunting.

Expand your search - not anywhere near every job available is listed on the Internet. Look in your Sunday newspapers, ask everyone you know, and depending on the type of job you are looking for, either look for "help wanted" signs in windows or just send resumes to companies that hire people for the type of job you are looking for.
Good luck.

Try local businesses. The entire retail industry is going to be hiring help for Christmas here soon, this is a great time to get your foot in the door if you want that route, or at least get some real job experience if you are looking for something else.

I would go to a temp service. There are tons of companies and corporations that hire only through temp agencies. There are temp agencies that place in specific fields like clerical/admin or IT. You can do a lot of job hunting in a one stop shop.

Look in your local news paper, or try you local grocery store or fast food places, alot of those areas are willing and eager to hire first time job hunters.
