Hello, I am looking to work in the care sector, made some applications to some care homes but was told I have no experience. I am a University Graduate. Any help, please?

I am sure the skills you have are transferrable to the sector. May I suggest you look on the SSSC website which give an abundance of information on careers within the sector. Once you have this information, apply to the many providers who are looking for caring people with your newfound knowledge of a career in care. I hope this helps and good luck!
