Please describe how to 'always find a software dev gig'. I'm sending multiple applications a day, to dev and dev-related jobs, and I get mostly no response at all.

The freelance sites (I don't have a track record on any of them) are possibly even worse, it's clear most proposals aren't even looked at.

I live in a major metropolitan hub, have a degree, and spend time tailoring applications proportionally to my interest in the position. I look mostly at large companies and government agencies, especially if I get word they’re currently hiring a lot.
