Breaking into an Industry
Remember that experience can be learned over time. Hard work, self motivation, drive, and enthusiasm cannot, they come from within; you either have it or you don't.
My advise would be that when you write your cover letter, make sure you let the employer know why you want to work for them (research the company)and what you CAN bring to them. Forget what you can't do because you're still a student, that will come over time. Make sure your resume and cover letter stands out, it's a good idea to look at what qualifications they are looking for and quote (and play up which ones you have with examples). Tell them how enthusiastic you are and that you are open to continuous learning. Be yourself and employers will appreciate your honesty.
Many employers do hire students for entry level positions because you are an investment for their company's future. Don't give up!!
