I found a job after looking for a few months. I don't know where you're based, but I found it really tough to get an interview (almost all the headhunters were useless, a few on-line applications worked).Anyway, as some people said, you have a very diverse experience, and I believe this works against you: I guess people look at your resume and think "OK this guy know a little of everything...".When I was looking for a job, I had this idea of setting up a website with on-line toy pricers (sto/local vols+jumps, etc) to show I knew stuff and I could do it, maybe that's something you could do?I think it's wrong to work for free, even worse to pay for a job.Finally, tu160's advice to create 2/3 different resumes sounds very sensible to me. Just my $0.02
