Your son may wish to pursue an internship rather than a regular job, if lack of experience is the primary problem. Many companies take on interns, work them like dogs and pay them a tiny salary -- but in exchange, the intern acquires some real-world experience and usually gains a few skills (not to mention a potential later job-offer). Many students just out of school have the luxury of accepting a low salary for a time ... this route may be acceptable to your son and is substantially more palatable than being unemployed or taking a job that doesn't give him any valuable experience.
Feel free to message me privately about this for specific internship suggestions.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
