May I suggest you take a break from "looking"? It sounds counterintuitive, but sometimes it's better to focus on something else just to gain momentum and confidence. Maybe not the answer you were looking for, but it worked for me.
Usually opportunities come through the people you know. Go to relevant industry events and make connections. Offer to do unpaid work experience for a short while. Also usually regional areas have more opportunities as the pools of talent are much smaller.
I would also suggest you don't give up if you're committed. It's tough but your first job is definitely the hardest job you'll ever have to get!
