gain experience by volunteering and apply… and apply… and apply… and apply… and meet people… and apply…
honestly getting a job just involves being hella stubborn at this point (even to the point of applying to stuff you’re not qualified for; you’d be surprised the interviews you might get)

You make a resume and cover letter and apply to just about any opening 10 times a day and hope a robot picks you after 3 months. You then have interviews but that doesnt mean you get it no matter how "well it went" you also have to do your research to know which ubderpaid job will benefit you the most. 9 times out of ten you will work in retail

I’m not worrying about work for now but if you want a job for money I would recommend asking about and doing internships. If you can find one that’s fun and you actually enjoy (like me currently being an intern at a horse ranch) than even better. I say find something fun because another friend of mine was working food service, didn’t enjoy it, and quit. Part of my classes had me make my first resume which I put experience such as being apart of multiple school leaderships in the past and my internship.

Depends on what job ya looking for exactly. If ya need a quick job like in services,the stores or restaurants will have posters up to advertise.
You can also go to websites and see if the said place have a job application or a redirection to closest areas that are looking to hire.
LinkedIn is a resume sort of site, people use it for connections, as resumes of course, and to look for work (especially in line for professional careers).
For art, it's the same, resume if ya have one, portfolio to advertise, and connections if ya have any. If not, ya built up to there.
If none of that work, ask around, friends, family, etc.

I went in for an interview and almost begged for the job. I'm pretty sure they hired me because they felt bad. 5 years later, I want to get a new job.
