Consider adding volunteer activities to your portfolio of job-search strategies. No, I don't being sure to list stuff you had
to do through school or clubs on your resume (although of course you should). And I don't mean only the stuff you did out
of the general goodness of your heart (although that's important).
Rather,
this link suggests volunteering can be a strategy to getting a paying
job. You're sitting around on your you-know-what, perhaps wringing your
hands, like you've done all the networking you can through the people
you know. How about targeting a volunteer opportunity that will put you
in touch with more folks who might know someone who knows someone--and
that will allow you to publicly showcase your goodness along with your
skills through posts on Facebook, LinkedIn, or even your own blog/tweet
combo?
