Learn to write a CV/resume without adjectives. When you do your best to fill up one page, and find your experience lacking, you can ask someone who hires new grads if they would hire/interview you. If they say no, ask why not. The answer they give will give you a clue as to what you need to improve on. Ask enough people and a pattern will emerge.

Also, no matter how hard things get, keep a positive attitude, or at least don’t become negative. People wanna work with people they’d like to spend time around.
