You see products advertised on Super Bowl Sunday and everybody wants one. Many people want to be affiliated with those firms. First, you need a skill that is transferable, jobs like accounting, human resources, and facility are the kind of jobs that are pretty similar across industry lines. Engineering, sales, and marketing are more specific and require knowledge that is not as transferable. During normal times, it's probably difficult, but not impossible.
Companies are more choosy and want directly related industry experience.
However, if you know someone in a good company, they can refer you and indicate that you learn fast or are a good worker. Often, the employee will receive a bonus if you get hired so there is good incentive to market you internally. When the external market is as hot, as it is now, companies lower their standards because there aren't as many people to go around. Instead of seeking the 5 year experience person, a college grad will do. NOT SO HOT Short of getting into your ideal firm, consider working for one that is in the same industry but not as well regarded.
