How does a person go about getting onto a publisher's list of book designers?

I have just graduated with a B.A in Graphic Design and I am interested in designing book covers. I was wondering, how does a person go about getting onto a publisher's list of book designers? If anybody can also give me some insiders advice of the industry that would be great.

1. Well I'm going to say, like a lot of those industries- books, music, film etc there is an element of luck involved in getting employed. However, I would just find a couple of publishers you are interested in working for and ask them for some work experience, if you can prove in the short time you have as work experience that you are irreplaceable then chances are you will get a job there. Good luck :)
