Applied for my first job while studying at community college and seeking advice

I am currently in my first semester at community college and I’m on the hunt for my first job. So far, I’ve had no luck. My only experience has been babysitting for family and friends, which hasn’t been a significant commitment. Thankfully, my financial aid covers my college expenses, and I’m living independently with a roommate. Despite my situation, I really want to find a job—any job, honestly. I’ve been applying through Indeed but haven’t heard back from anyone. I even asked ChatGPT for help creating a resume with my limited experience, which includes 150 hours of volunteer work from high school, along with some awards and honors. I’m wondering if I should start going in person to apply, as my parents suggested, or if that’s an outdated approach. I’ve been told that at my age, having a resume isn’t the only factor; attitude matters too. I’m a hard worker and very upfront, but I’m not sure how to showcase that effectively. Any advice on how to improve my chances would be greatly appreciated!
