How to get your first job with no experience
Build a specific, honest CV
List everything — school projects, volunteering, part-time work, side projects, personal wins. Quantify whatever you can ("coordinated a team of 12 volunteers", "managed £500 charity fundraiser"). Use the free CV scorer to see where you stand.
Pick a sector and go deep
Don't spray 200 generic applications. Pick one or two sectors, understand what they care about, and write your CV and cover letter for that audience. A focused applicant beats a generic one every time.
Apply to way more than you think
On entry-level roles, expect 3–6% callback rates. You need 50–80 applications to reliably get 3–5 interviews. This is exactly what Autoply is built for — you set preferences once and it applies overnight at scale.
Get something on your CV fast
Freelance, temp work, volunteering, or unpaid work experience all count. One month of any real work is more valuable on a CV than a gap. Customer service, admin, and sales are often hiring same-week.
The honest truth about “no experience required”
Most job listings that say they require 1–2 years experience for an entry-level role are aspirational, not hard requirements. The person writing the job description is hedging. In reality, if your CV shows the right attitude, a willingness to learn, and any evidence of initiative — you'll get shortlisted alongside more experienced candidates.
The ones that genuinely mean “no experience required” are customer service, retail, sales (especially SDR/BDR at tech companies), warehousing, care work, and junior admin. These sectors have high turnover and train from scratch by necessity.
The most important thing you can do is apply more. The maths of job searching is brutal at the entry level — callback rates are 3–7%. That means for every 20 applications, you might get 1 interview. Most people give up after 10–15 applications and conclude the market is broken. It's not — you just need higher volume.
That's what Autoply is for. You upload your CV, set preferences, and it applies overnight to 100 roles while you sleep. Your job is to nail the 3–5 interviews that come back.
