no job yet experience?

i am 18 years old and i had been working from the day i turned sixteen, i’ve got a year and a half in retail and over a year in working in a kitchen and i got put out (no i was not fired) from working in the kitchen at the start of summer aka the worst time to try find a job. i thought it would be easier to find one with my experience but nah, can’t make plans or save money without one or pay for my own car and i start college in dublin soon as well. genuinly done it all, spoken to managers and given them my cv, sent on indeed and email and to no avail. my luck has never been worse didnt look for a job all year bc i thought i had one lined up for me☹️
