I need a credit card asap

[PizzaDude]

I've never had a credit card before.

I need one to fund a trip to Europe.

I plan on paying it off completely when I get back with my signing bonus from my new job.

What are my options? Can I get one with 0% apr for the first 12 months?

Please advise.

Do not trust credit card companies. Find another way.

Citi.com

I recommend the Citi Diamond Rewards card.

IIRC Crap One charges an international transaction fee. Maybe not on all accounts?

Good luck. I would recommend a co-signer and it doesn't have to be a parent. It can be a brother, sister, girlfriend, neighbor, etc.
