You have thousands of people doing game development for free as part time projects. Unless you are finding yourself doing this type of work you really don't stand a chance. No one is going to put you into a position to gain the right experience unless you have demonstrated you are worth the investment.

I'd be OK to do some free work to get started. Any ideas about where I could find these types of gigs ?
