    If you are in college is there any career support provided for students? Someone who could help you to re-write your cv maybe? Interview skills?

    (I haven't a clue about colleges tbh, but I presume there are some student supports available?)

    If you have any kind of experience being around horses and not afraid to get your hands dirty. There are quite a lot of equestrian centers and private stables always looking for extra hands. Most equestrian centers here prefer taking on students part time, so you could always go that route for work experience.

    What are some skills you guys have put down on your CV?

    Did you ask someone to have a look at your cv?

    Part time, I've failed the LC twice (did it this year) and I'm starting a course in journalism.

    Part time availability is mostly in retail or hospitality. Don't just send in CVs. Call to stores, cafes and restaurants and ask about the possibility of part time/student hours. I don't know one student who looked for part time who didn't get some hours somewhere.
