Assuming you're in university, go to your career centre and ask the ladies to help you revamp your resume to make you stand out from the rest.
Try volunteering instead of working, volunteer for some non-profits, it looks better on a resume.

I am in uni right now. That has been always on the back of my mind. But in all honesty I have gone to a few workshops that work on resumes (including to my co-op coordinator) and they all gave it the okay after a few minor tweaks. I plan on volunteering (in a related field) along with working. I need some income this summer. I also need to write the MCAT so it will be busy.

I don't really understand how to network. What I do in terms of not applying online is to either call in to see if they are hiring and then go to speak to the manager. Or I talk to some people about if they know of any places that are hiring at the moment, but still no luck.
I just hope it's not too late
