Anyone found employment recently?

Hi all,

Has anyone had much luck finding a job as of late?

Everyday I am applying for all sorts of jobs and at best I might get 1 interview every few weeks which then goes nowhere. I don't even get a response or "Thank you but you have not been successful" email afterwards. 

I was on the phone to a lady from the National Careers Service and she told me that she was struggling to find a new job herself. 

Has anyone got any tips or advice if they have been successful? 

Thank you
