This is good advice CashewGuy. Reach out to people who are not hiring, ask if you can have 15 minutes of their time just to seek advice about the industry they are in. Let them know that you are young and about to enter the job market and you know that they are a leader in their industry… Etc.

When you ask for advice you tend to get opportunities. When you ask for opportunity you tend to get advice.

Good luck!
