No Experience

Join industry societies, volunteer and apply for internships and work experience in as many relevant places as you can, you'll not only gain valuable experience, you'll build a network and get a foot in the door. Once you're in, be keen to take on responsibility, demonstrate your skills and lead projects or initiatives.

If you don't ask, you don't get. Be honest and seize the opportunity to show someone how much you deserve a chance. You have a much better chance of convincing a manager to hire you if you can tell them why you're right and demonstrate through examples, why you have the relevant experience to do the job. Be confident in your skills and ability any recruiter will respect your passion and effort and that's half the battle.

If you are good at public speaking, writing, training, listening and facilitating teamwork. These are skills you can develop through writing classes and membership in a Toastmasters club.
