College graduate with no experience.
Where can I find true entry-level jobs? All interviews I've had so far asked me about previous work experience.
just keep applying, someone will settle for you eventually.

What degree? And did you do any kind of interning/volunteering?

>actually suggesting that OP should be a slave for a while.
fuck that. unpaid internships are frowned upon by recruiters because it shows you take no pride in what you do and don't believe that your own work is worth being paid for. Putting down a part time job as a fucking bank teller would look much better than some slave-labor internship.
OP, go apply to be a cashier or a bank teller at a bank/credit union. Cash handling is key in those jobs and policy knowledge is also something you will learn fast. Those skills come in handy in any other job.

Can you say "Would you like fries with that?"
Seriously, just get a job. ANY job. While you're working at McD or ditch-digging, keep looking. At least you'll have some income, some pride, and some proof of reliability.

why would you make this thread but not tell us what your degree is? How the fuck are we supposed to give you meaningful advice without knowing that?
you never earned money or did some social service activity or internship? think about everything you every did and then pick something suitable or tell them about projects from your education like your final project.
>you actually believed that there's no need to work while studying
I dropped out of college and it was the best decision I ever made. It's like 50% experience and 50% who you know. It's a stupid game. I started as an administrative assistant 3 years ago and now I'm a Sr program manager.
Who do you know? What do you know? Do you have anything to prove it? Aka certifications, and such
A college degree means absolutely shit in my city (large tech city). No one gives a fuck if you went to college. No one gives a fuck if you want a job.
Want a job? What are your skills? Prove you have skills. Are you personable? Does the employer believe you could get the work done if you were hired?
