What profession are you in?

Some professions are slow so you need to be patient.

Also, if relocating is not a problem, you may want to consider to move to a place that has better chances than your current location.

My wife got a very good job within 2 months after she joined me in a big east coast city. But before she could even not get enough interviews in the mid-west(she had an MBA degree from a very good business school) for almost one year even though she had more than 2 years working experience.

I also know several friends moved to NYC after they graduated several months(MBA, same school as my wife's). They all got jobs there eventually. They could not find anything in the mid-west for more than 1 year(including the last year of their MBA program).

If you are married or have a boyfriend that can support you for some time, you may want to slow down your search a little bit. Start with the some of the followings:

1). Try volunteering(without pay --- this would be a big selling point for some small companies---remember, you need experience and reputation, money will come if you have them). One of my friends' wife got her first job volunteering, the company even paid her travel expense for changing visa(she needed to go abroad to get transfer to H1B) after they really liked her and wanted to keep her.

2). Don't look down on small companies. IMHO, if you really want to learn, small companies are actually better for starters---you can touch all the aspects of the business, unlike big companies, there are always formal procedures and departments, you may not have enough exposure to a certain amount of the business after years

3). Be humble(but with self respect) and be nice when you talk to people. Especially when talking to a head hunter. IMHO, you'd rather annoy(DE2 ZUI4) an individual company, but you don't want to annoy a head hunter. As I told you before, they have personal connections, they could easily ruin your reputation and you'd never know it. I get called many times even though I made my resume private on Monster and be passive on Linked in. But still, I always return calls from head hunters and tell them the reason why I am not leaving, and always forward their job descriptions to my friends(CC the head hunter as well), even though I only work with 2 header hunters.

4). This point is arguable so if you don't agree, just ignore it. IMHO, randomly sending resumes(WU2 TOU2 CANG1 YING) is a bad idea. Companies and head hunters may save your resume on their file servers. Years later you may forget that you have sent your resume earlier and you send in another version since you are interested in a new opening there. And if they see the discrepancies in the 2 versions of your resume, you may not have the chance to explain. With this said, I'd suggest a more targeted approach. For example, in the first 2 weeks, I will send out 10 resumes and well document the time, destination and the resume I send, then I stop sending resumes and wait 3-4 to see if there are responses. In the waiting period, I will still watch openings and if I see something that I am really interested, I still send resume there. If there are responses during the waiting period, I will work on these responses(set up and prepare for interview etc). If you don't have any responses, or you don't have any (satisfied) offer, start another round by repeating the above steps until you get something that you like.
