I understand having the no work experience, but let's be real, it's not easy getting that experience.

Might as well get some theory, because it looks like your a go getter more so than just applying all day with no hope of landing anything.
Just my thoughts.
It sucks. I've applied to hundreds of jobs, and I've had my resume checked over by Professors, Exeuctives of Companies, Politicians, HR people. I don't know what it is. I have internship experience and lots of voluntee work. Even started my own business while in school. (Property Management). Don't know what else to do.
That's what I thought...I've pressured everyone I know that is higher up somewhere in the job world. Politicians in all honesty don't give a damn about anyone it's all about themselves. When it's campaign time they want all your help, but afterwards it's all downhill. Unless of course you're working right beside them as a Campaign Manager/Cheif of Staff and those jobs aren't that easy to come by.
I'm fortunate to know some high up people and I think in a good market it would have worked, but with the way everything is it's alot more difficult even if you do happen to know someone.
Maybe it's my luck.

TRUTH.
Theory doesn't matter at all these days; maybe it did for our parents. Gone are the days of being able to matriculate through college, right into a decent full time gig.
Get into the space during as early as possible, preferably during undergrad- either as n intern or entry level/assistant type work. At least that way, you'll have some solid connects within the industry of choice.
I just hired a new person to my sales team with 5 years experience in the industry, NO degree. We selected him over other candidates, 3 of which just completed their MBA but with no real hands-on experience.
The lethal combo IMO is having 3-5 years of work exp combined with an MBA. You'll have no problem with a one-two punch of education and work exp.
