What should I do to earn the money for getting horses and training them to work with kids?
I have joined this program and what they do is, they would save and rescue horses, and then work with them. Train them to work with kids, train them to work with anybody really. I really liked this and well, lets just say that I have been around horses quite a bit and I have always been obsessed with kids, babysitting them, working with them, and just plain old playing with them. But what do I do to earn the money, because I really want to do this and I'm not backing down from this plan.

I finish my Bachelor this upcoming year and I have zero experience in anything. What should I do?
Hello everyone, I am Rea. Currently a student in Political Science. As I finish my Bachelor studies this upcoming year, the pressure has grown. I have zero experience. I have never worked, never done an internship, never participated in activities related to my field of study and I have never evenvolunteered! I have had my reasons, including lack of knowledge when it comes to the field of employment and other personal issues related to my mental health. Now that my life is more in oder, I feel so hopeless when it comes to my career! I tried to apply to an internship,I wasn't accepted. I have applied to another internship, still haven't heard from them but the chances of approval are slim. My Cv is very....empty. I tried finding an internship this summer in my city and there were no opportunitties. I don't know maybe it is my degree that doesn't offer many opportunities... :/ I have tried finding internships that were also related to social work, not only to my degree but I still couldn't find anything! I also applied to two organizations as a volunteer and I wasn't called. I think these organizations today want to have high school students or middle school students as volunteers and not grown up adults... I feel very hopeless and I feel a lot of pressure. :( I do have great grades and a scholarship of excellence, but uni knowledge won't get you far... What should I even do?Where do I even start?

How does one secure a job in this competitive job market?
I'm a college student studying to become a social worker. Unfortunately, I haven't had many job opportunities, so I lack experience. When applying for internships and other temporary jobs, they ask a lot of the applicant. It seems that I'm required to have a certain amount of experience to be qualified for most jobs. Ironically, these entry-level jobs demand applicants to have billions of jobs listed on their resume. As a full-time college student, I must focus on my education and be financially stable.
