Most of the jobs I actually got were the ones that... I was referred to by others that knew me and put in a good word for me. Any where you have others around you - family, friends, support group, church.... someone knows your value - but they need to know you are looking. Also, when you are "in between" jobs - do something to add to your skills - youtube can teach you many things or go to the library or somewhere where they are offering free classes. Add that to your resume so they know you are working on yourself. Also, volunteering is an excellent way to see if you might like the job and if they like you.
