This is what job-hunting's like...

yes
..from the book, "What Color Is Your Parachute?" (great book, by the way). Sometimes, you just have to get through all the no's to get to the yes, kinda like a numbers game.
Also, most jobs aren't advertised online or in print, so don't just depend on that. Find companies that you want to work for, try to get a contact, and then show how your skill set would benefit them. At the very least, leave your materials (resume, cover letter, contact info) and kindly ask them to contact you if any matching positions should open up. If you can, avoid HR because that's just an endless pit and your resume will go into a big pile with all the rest.
And when the point in time comes where you're going to interviews,
send a Thank You letter afterwards! That's no small deal.
Good Luck!
