Instead of trying to find the perfect chance, you should look for the right chance for right now. Get some work experience and start making money. When you're looking for a job, it's always easier to say that you're currently working instead of that you're unemployed.
Here are some of the best jobs for people who are just starting out in the work world.
Snuggler for a living
This has to be at the top of the list because it sounds so crazy. Still, a quick search on Indeed shows that more than 200 Snuggler/Cuddler jobs are being posted. Even more surprising is the fact that you can make $60 an hour just by hugging someone.

Mermaid with a Job
It's not a made-up job in Atlantis, the underwater kingdom, but a real one. Mermaids who work for money are basically models with a twist (in the tail that is). You must be able to swim well and be willing to stand on rocks for hours, no matter what the weather is like. About $250 an hour is what these mermaids make.
Psychic with a crystal ball in front of her.
If you have the gift of being able to talk to beings that we humans can't see, you could make about $57,000 per year as a psychic.

Have you ever wondered where the quotes, proverbs, and encouraging sayings that come in fortune cookies come from? People do get paid to write them, though.

Gross and unpleasant
On the surface, these jobs look bad, but someone has to do them.
Manager and worker checking out a sewer drain
Inspector
On this one, you can't even have a little bit of claustrophobia, and you can't be afraid of rats either.

Crime Scene Cleaner
Your time will be spent cleaning up blood and guts at crime scenes, which is a far cry from a typical 9-to-5 job. The pay ranges from $35,000 to $80,000 for this tough job. It's still up to you to decide if the money is worth the work....
Danger Pay
Some jobs aren't for everyone, but they pay the bills.
Hazardous Waste Manager
You will have to clean up chemical spills and get rid of dangerous things like biochemical waste that could hurt the environment and other people (including your own).
