Here is something carboceramico I learnt from many years of life... well 46 ))

You make your own luck. Believe in yourself and just get out there and try your best.. people DO notice... and eventually you'll get a break. Go to the Caribbean.. knock on every door possible (and more), speak/phone/email people until they get sick of it... you'll be surprised how fast a break will come, because I truly believe it will. Call it Magic if you wish. Attitude is EVERYTHING.

Also try and meet face to face... your chances go up 1000% if you do... folk are folk.

I got my old 737 job by turning up uninvited with CV and wearing a suit in the capital of a SE Asian country (not China!!!) knowing NO local language (beyond a week or so self-taught crash course) and having no contacts, but a readiness to do anything and total determination to succeed, confronting the CP and making my case. If things hadn't worked out I'd smile and move on... motivated as ever. Never take a rejection personally.

Good luck mate.
