Where to begin with courier/parcel contracts?

I want to make a name for myself, taxiing some items around. I left Lave to a Corporate, Democratic and Confederacy state. The main stations did not have jobs on offer... or when they did, more experienced pilots were needed.

So where should one go to begin these contracts?

You gotta build your courier rep before you get offered more, and better, contracts - takes a little time.
Where doesn't really matter at first, although the longest runs will be found at the rim worlds.

And some won't be offered until you have a good reputation and plenty of combat experience.

I think that it is probably best to start with some low-profit, safe contracts rather than the long haul/high risk ones, as the more deadlines that you miss, the more your reputation will drop.

My problem is that I can't find any contacts offered, anywhere. It always says they're looking for more experienced pilots. How are we supposed to get any experience of we can't get a single contract?
