It's all about the numbers

Just a thought--

If you are intent on finding a job in a given field, submit applications to open positions regularly. This may seem like common sense, but in so many cases, we fail to do this. We submit to just a handful and wonder why we aren't finding success...

If it's something you really want, keep at it. Make sure you are submitting your best customized resume, try to make personal contact (even if it's just a phone call) with a person who has the authority to hire, write a good cover letter, and KEEP TRYING. Even if you don't succeed for a month, three months, or longer, you're certainly going to have a lot better chance for success if you keep submitting!
