Can be soul destroying if you are never hearing back, but it'll come good!
the top three results were cleaning jobs.
must be trying to tell me something....
Should be easy to get a job as a temp for a shop, it's proving to be a pain in the ass!

And the agencies string you along .
It's a miserable process.
I used to enjoy a bit of detective work when I was unemployed. If I found a job advertised by an agency, I'd try and find out who the company was and approach them directly. Sometimes you just don't have enough information, but when you do, it's very satisfying. At least once, if not twice iirc I was given the cold shoulder by an agent (either telling me the job was filled or telling me I wasn't suitable and refusing to pass on my CV) only to get an interview after I worked out who the company was and getting in contact.
Good luck.
I've had four jobs and four interviews in my life. I didn't even get the whole "cover letter" thing until my GF explained it to me.
I'm applying for jobs but not had any offers of interviews yet. My girlfriend works in HR and has told me that the job market has improved and to keep my chin up, she's had people turn down job offers which is a first since 07-08. The right job will come along mate.
Recruiters use a computer program to match CV's against keywords in the job description. So, you pretty much have to tailor your CV to match a job description.
What is your line of work?
Eventually you will have 2 or 3 cv's that give a different perspective on your skills depending on who you are applying too.
List real world facts. Instead of "I developed such n such" give practical benefits/outcomes & if possible financial benefits of your contribution.
Stay strong everyone, i'm sure the right thing will come along for us all

I do have a good CV but I've seen very little where they actually want it, everything I'm looking at is online applications.
My feedback thread is here.
I had a few second interviews last year but never got any of them, which killed my spirit so haven't done any applications for a while, managed to snag a job while out drinking though, which is nice, a mate of a mates company, no CV or interview, just a look in the eye and a firm handshake, which was nice.
You've just got to keep at it and something will give.
Good luck.
