experience
I've been looking for jobs alot. I just got a 2 year degree and know of plenty of jobs, but all of them want experience. I don't have experience in business. How am I supposed to get a job in business when everyone wants people with experience? It's like to get a job I need experience, and to get experience I need a job. HELP!

Maybe give some free advice about: Job Searches?
Ahhh the age old question of how to get experience when everyone already wants experience! As someone who reads ALOT of resumes and interviews here are a few suggestions;
Volunteer to work in a place like an office that works in the non profit sector.
Apply for entry level positions - There are alot out there, they usually don't pay well but it does give you experience
You would be surprised what experience you have, whether it was working for a friend/relative, or any job u have had put a spin on it and highlight the business aspects of the job e.g. working as a cashier you ensured that customer service was paramount and that you ensured that both the needs of the customer and the company were met and that a balance between the two was achieved.
Also and I hate to say this but if you are looking to work in business and want to make "good" money you may want to investigate further education, perhaps pursuing that while working and gaining experience.
Hope this helps.

perhaps if they want you, and you have that degree. whether you like it or not, you possess that experience. but experience may come from time of study and whatnot, try a job out see how it goes. every job takes you in and teaches you stuff.
dont let things hold you back.
