Its not related to your "skills" but who you know. So I network.

If you werent getting job hits, ask your friends/old coworkers if there's anything. I told my dad to do the same thing when he lost his job, bam a month later he's got two interviews. Also if you still cant find one, lower your job expectations. $40k/yr is better than desiring a $60k/yr job, but not having one.

nahmean?
I was applying at McDonalds and stuff, I gave up looking for a decent paying job, I didn't care what it was after a few months of looking.

Luckily things came together and I got loads of work at what was my small part time job and other large odd jobs on the side, so I can't complain, but talk about stress when I felt 100% hopeless.
