For anyone who broke into government or public policy early in their career, how did you land your first role? Are there specific job titles, agencies, or organizations I should be targeting that I may be overlooking? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I recently graduated with a B.A. in Political Science (Public Policy) and live in San Francisco. I've been applying to city and state government positions for the past few months but haven't had much luck. Most of the other roles I come across seem to require more experience than I currently have.

I'm especially interested in public policy related to green energy, climate, and monetary or economic policy, but I'm open to other paths that provide strong experience.
