Some examples of use:
Solicitud is more used when speaking about finding a part time job or asking something from a company or institution, where is likely you have to fill up a paper format (called “solicitud” itself in many cases) (solicitud de empleo, solicitud de beca)
Petición is more used to talk about intangible things such as community help or help request (firmar una petición, a petición de los estudiantes, etc)
Pedido is used to talk about an order such as food or other purchased items
