I would also suggest to not let the add and what they are looking for stop you.
I worked in recruitment, and usually if you have a good enough story and you seem confident enough, at least I would give people a chance in a phone interview even if they didnīt have enough experience.
Also... try some different approaches.
What companies like, especially in a yougn starter, is somebody who is driven and knows what he wants.
Donīt sent in your application and wait and pray for an answer.
Go to the company, see if you can speak to the hiring manager there (even if they do not have openings at the moment), and give your application and cover letter.
Make sure you know what to say before hand.
If you cannot speak to the hiring manager directly, try and talk to his/her receptionist. Tread them like they are the most importan persons in the company, which they are, because they will give their impressions the the hiring manager.
Good luck!
