I just wanted to float this out there: randomly sending out resumes is one of the least successful ways of landing a job.

If you have no job currently, you should consider volunteering or offering your services pro bono if you can. You should at least be pursuing what they call "informational interviews," where you interview with people who have positions or work in industries you're focused on (just don't ask for work at these).

This provides networking opportunities, which lead to far more positions than you could imagine. Most job vacancies are filled before they're even advertised. Who you are matters, yes, but sometimes who you know is the linchpin. People like to help people, but usually only when they actually know them.

Good luck.
