What's his background. Has he done extra-curricular marketing projects? Internship? Volunteer Marketing?

He basically just needs to apply for anything that comes along, but if he hasn't done any of the above, then that's what he should be working on.

Basically she just needs to keep searching. On Seek, search by:

Classification -> Marketing & Communications

It can help she can narrow down what area of marketing or what industry she wants to work in. Then just perfect that resume, focusing on metric achievements and practical skills.

And don't expect anything in under 6 months, it can easily take that long.
