Default A+ Cert But No Formal Job Experience

Hello to Everyone,

I have had my A+ Cert for awhile now but cannot get my foot in the door. I applied to Best Buy three times and Staples once but never got a response. I'm facing a dilemma. Although I have a certification and am quite knowledgeable about computers, there are still some areas that I don't have any experience in, such as networking. I also want to become a better troubleshooter but that can't be accomplished fixing a family's or friend's computer every now and then. And besides, that is not going to count for actual job esperience. Businesses always want you to have experience, but you can't get it without someone giving you a chance. It seems that no one wants to take the time to teach you, and entry-level jobs are not always available. Sometimes I get extremely frustrated. How can I get my foot in the door with limited experience
