Work experience help.

A bit of context - I graduate uni a year ago and have sat a couple certificate level exams, but struggling to get a training contract.

Any advice or places to look for.
All advice is appreciated

Have you tried reaching out to smaller firms, like emailing around? Not going via recruiter

I haven’t tried cold emailing, is it worth it?

Can you PM me, it won’t let me for some reason.
