  I agree, you'll need to get your foot in the door somewhere before you can expect a job offer with no experience. Right now, as I'm sure you're aware, there are plenty of people vying for positions, many with more experience and education. A better option would be to try to get in as an assistant, a temp even, or an intern. These won't pay the big bucks, but no one right out of college should expect to earn a lot. I know, it's a downer but it's the truth. Another idea could be looking outside your county. Are there areas you would be willing to move should the job be right? Are there other cities with more options? What is your current degree? You say you're in school for a bachelors in health care but also that you have a degree. Just curious. Perhaps that would help gain some experience.
