Oh lots of things!
- You could evaluate your career path - what sort of jobs are you looking for and what's your dream job? Maybe you could consider applying for a different job?
- Knock on doors! Start networking. Use LinkedIn to connect with people you'd like to work with. Meet job agencies.
- Consider further study! There are lots of free online courses that can be hugely valuable to employers. It gives you a little bit of edge that other applicants might not have.
- Fix up your resume! How can you make it better reflect your roles? It needs to be your brand so work with people who are familiar with good resumes and ask tips!
- Work experience or volunteering! Obviously you want a paid role but sometimes it's just about wiggling your way through the door to show that you've got what it takes!

Keep looking until you find the one for you, or you could possoably work for people on the street like cleaning houses and stuff. Just be careful :)

If you are looking for a specific type of job or a job at a specific level, it may help to take a job that is slightly below your qualifications. You will be an asset to the company, but more importantly, having a job helps you to get the next job. Being unemployed will put you under more scrutiny during your job search, but have a job, even if it is part-time, will make you look productive. As a bonus you will feel better about yourself!

First of all figure out if you need any upgrade on your cv, get someone objective to look into it, try jobcentres, focus on having a positive attitude. Try from a new perspective when applying for jobs.

Take it a day at a time. Did you have someone look over your resume? Have you tried a practice interview with a close friend? Could those benefit you in your situation? Also this may be a great time to brush up on a skill and/or volunteer.
