Job hunting not going well?

Hi all,
Ive just completed my ATPL ground school exams and am hour building whilst reading some of the threads on pprune about all the doom and gloom trying to get a job from pilots who have just qualified to pilots with 1000's of hours experience on jets etc; in the current financial crisis!

My question to anyone who is stuggling to find a job is (for people in the UK):
  • Have you tried getting jobs just around the British Isles or have you been applying to the airlines overseas, Worldwide and on the Continent?
I appreciate that airlines may not be recruiting many pilots, if at all at the moment in the UK, but I can't believe that pilots with JAR licences are not wanted across the globe somewhere. e.g Africa, Asia.

Any comments about your recruitment attempts would be great.
