Back when the economy really was tanking, I was able to find a job still!! I couldn't believe it. I posted my resume on Craigslist (without my personal info - never give that out until you've verified a legit contact). And, got several job offers - a few not quite in my field and a few that were.
Also, to bring in money, I found a happy medium of working part time, while finishing school and also working as a photographer and also part time assisting an older couple cleaning house, cooking, etc.
It's really weird looking back on it now, how I juggled all of it, but it brought in some extra money. I felt like I had to sort of reinvent myself and my way of thinking. Job searching and becoming desperate for anything will do that to someone, but it worked and now I have a job that is everything I could ask for - so, all in all, this thing we call an endless job search, does have a silver lining
There are a few books that can help: What Color Is Your Parachute? Check that one out
I wish you luck, as I know it can be daunting & scary out there!
