Entry level experience can be obtained via unpaid/paid internships or
even volunteer work at a non-profit organization (even if it's for only
2-3 hrs a day/week). Additionally, I would recommend finding a reputable temporary agency and getting a temporary
job. Even a 3-6 month assignment could give you enough experience to
land a permanent job. I would say that almost all employees start out
as temps/coordinators/assistants and work their way up. Either that, or
they have business experience and end up "falling into the role". Stay positive and an opportunity should come up!
