As I said the other time you asked this, volunteer. You name yourself “Patience” but your other post asks how you can easily get a job you love. This tells me you are not patient and also that you don’t want work to feel like work. Nobody does but that’s life much of the time. Especially if you are inexperienced in the work force. So, again, volunteer. You will be more able to find something fulfilling. Eventually you may be able to build your resume with volunteer experience and move it from the side to the forefront of your resume and get paid work doing a similar thing.

I think it's important to be realistic about finding a job that you love. Every job has parts that you either don't like or don't enjoy as much as others. The key is to be able to identify what are the parts of your current job or a future job that you want to do more of. I do this by creating a like / dislike list. I've personally found that it's easier for me to create a list of what I don't like or want to do which helps me narrow in on the things I enjoy or love. As the list grows I use that to help me keyword search jobs that match as many of the things that I like. That's what helped me land within the field of HR!
