Frankly, the job market is not that good here and your presence will not make much of a difference in helping you find a job here. My suggestion is that you continue to apply from your hometown and keep your hopes high. Eight months of efforts through job sites is just nothing. Secondly, if you have any contacts here such as friends, they can keep an eye for vacancies being announced here. Also, you can try to put an ad at Gulf Time on their Sunday edition and do it off and on on this day. This will surely help you.
Tomorrow you may possibly be seeing a post from one Molten Metal. Please just overlook that post.
