If you're only wanting to obtain a FICO score for now, you could get a Crown Jeweler account. They do not do a credit check so you'll have no inquiries and they do report to all three CRA's. You have to make a purchase before they begin to report but they have several items at a low cost that you can pay off with the minimum payment in 2-3 months. Once that account begins reporting then you'll have a score and as it raises, you can then try to get a CC.
You may also look into getting a secured credit card but make sure they don't report it to the CRA's as being secured. Eventually, a secured card can be converted to a non-secured card.
You can go to
www.whogavemecredit.com, and get a general idea of which CCC's pull EQ in your area and apply for a regular credit card outright. You may get a very low limit because you don't have any revolving debt experience but at least it will get you started. Don't go crazy and keep applying if you receive a denial or two because you will just keep piling up inquiries. If you can't get an unsecured card after a couple of attempts, then the secured route will work just as well.
Just a couple of suggestions.
