20 years ago i was able to get a job at a Goodyear tire store with zero documented experience (other than many years of wrenching on my own stuff).
we did lots of tire and front end work but the shop was full service and i was able to learn how to do a lot of things on many different cars.
i'm not sure if it's still the same but i would think you'd be able to gain some experience in this way that would allow you to build a skill set and a decent resume.
best of luck and happy new year!!

edit: much like jake suggested
