By all means, go and talk to your boss. Actually, go and talk to all your bosses (there's usually a few in large organizations).
Don't appear, cap in hand, asking for a job. Just simply tell them that you respect them and want a little of their time for some advice. Ask them what you should do.
These are people with a lot of experience in the world and, like most people, will probably react positively to a respectful request for their own advice. Don't try to convince them to hire you if they have no such plans, but try to learn from them. You never know, they may give you some good contacts, some tactical advice on how to approach job-seeking in the industry.
Be a sponge and soak up as much knowledge, experience and contacts as possible.
It's a long hard slog, but it does get easier.
