Instead of going for secure credit card with cash deposit in the initial stage, you can get credit card without deposit in some of the banks like DCU and other credit unions. This will help to build your credit score.

What's DCU? (I ask because I'm about to receive an offer from SF company, and I'm in Canada)

If you're Canadian, you can use RBC Bank (rbcbank.com) and leverage your Canadian credit score to get a card.
