Still no job. How long is this actually going to take?

I have applied for a few today, still waiting to hear back from people. Have no interviews to go to.

In good news, I do have work experience at the local newspaper. Seeing as the job hunt isn't going well I've started sending speculative emails to people about work experience/ internships. I'm getting closer and closer to to going to do an NVQ or evening course or even a masters just to put my job-hunt on hold yet still doing something. I think extending the overdraft is probally the way forward. With 3 months of no income at all have rinsed my savings

I have also started utilising another job hunting tactic, asking employed friends if there are any jobs/getting people who've just left jobs to recommend me. Possibly something I should of tried in the beginning.

I've also started looking into free online courses, but as the majority are not so much recognised qualificaltions but free learning materials I don't know how beneficial it will be.
