How am I suppose to get my first job?

Job searching

I'm a 19-year-old male that graduated high school, and that's about all I have going for me. I feel like all of the job applications I fill out are pretty much blank since I have nothing to put since they all want a resume, past experience or something like that. I've had a handful of interviews that went nowhere and 1 working interview that was paid; I pretty much just washed dishes for 2 hours and got paid for it, but again, nothing came of that. I feel really lost and just don't know what to do. I have been applying pretty much everywhere near me, but for some reason I just won't get hired. Is there anything I can do to improve my chances at all?
