There are several credit cards out there for someone in your situation. Check credit.com or creditkarma.com. Both will have some suggestions. Maybe open an account at a small, local credit union and they may have some programs as well for someone in your situation.

A lot of car dealership as well have programs for recent graduates to get into a car loan if you're in need of a new car. My nephew recently got a Nissan Altima at a Nissan dealership at around 4% APR, and he had no credit like you.

Those are the 2 best ways.

Hopefully, my car will last me a couple more years before I need to replace it. I am most interested in building credit so I can buy/build a house after I get married (which will likely happen in the next year to a year and a half). Thankfully, she had parents who were much wiser about credit, so her credit score is fantastic. However, I'd like to not have to rely on her score.
