Before applying for a job you have to build your capacities through trainings.  If you do not have the money to do that then you may wish to go on the internet and try to do that.  The other thing is that with this much of learning you will need to go into the internet in different employment sites and start applying for job.  Recruiters like to see good education and in-house trainings.

Absolutely superb question.  Answer is :  MAKE YOURSELF DIFFERENT.  GET THAT EXTRA EDGE.

Get an extra language.  an extra skill which will sharpen you in your field.  off course get some extra courses if you can to make you more proficient.  SOme of them would be Time Management, Stress Management, Customer Service, Presentation skills if that applies to you to start with.  Most of them available online for free nowadays.  let me know privately if you need assistance.

What recrutiers look for is most of the time experienced people.  but sometimes a fresh graduate catches the eye.  this is only if you have something that others dont.  so give yourself that extra edge by training and extra skills.  In your free time, go and shadow someone you know where you can learn something on job without a salary.  Lot of companies do that nowadays to help fresh graduates get exposure plus get some work done for free.  

Your customer service skills, your interpersonal skills have to be superb if you want to be considered and if the recruiter knows how to see that off course.  You need to make something balance for your lack of experience.  

Best of luck

First, ask yourself where best you are. Conduct your MBTI or Holland test and find out the best way to utilze your built-in talent and bring the most of your personality.

Read books and dont stop educating ones self. Apply to as much jobs as possible, and make mistakes in interviews in order to perfect it next time.
