Rejected from a job because lack of experience.
Had an interview yesterday for a retail job. Got an email today saying I didn't get the job because of my lack of experience.
I apply for jobs to get experience. Prerequisite experience is required to work at jobs.
I'm stuck in a rut. Almost a 21 year old university student and I've had a total of 18 months of working experience in my life - and that was at McDonalds. I also spent a year working with my grandfather building / painting, but I'm not technically qualified so I can't put that on my CV. Doesn't help when my state has the worst unemployment rate in the country.
Got any tips to land a job, flood?

Work at your university. You have a higher chance of getting a job in there than someone off the street that doesn't attend your university. Make sure your resume is so good that employers will get down on their knees, begging you to take the opening. Don't blame other people if you don't get the job. Don't be a spoiled brat if you don't get it. Be respectful and courteous. Respond back to email saying something like, "Thank you for considering me." and don't ignore it. It just makes you look like you're raging and if you try to apply again, you're probably not going to get a good chance compared to others unless your resume is impeccable and you have a lot more experience than your competitors.
