How to I get a job with absolutely no work experience?

Lack of experience should not hinder you getting an entry-level position - most people they hire in those spots have no experience. Everyone starts somewhere. You should also be checking out your college's Office of Career Placement to see what jobs they have in their database, and access their other resources. You can also try for an internship in your area of study, so you can gain experience relevant to your chosen profession when you graduate. As well, you can always volunteer a few hours a week at a local charity, as that counts as work experience as well. But don't let 'lack of experience' stop you from putting in applications and getting out there - at some point, not having experience is just an excuse for not trying.
