<human>: My story's a bit of a long one, so hang in there for a moment. Soon before I graduated in August, I got an offer to replace someone at a small printing company. After I graduated, I headed down, aced the interview, and got the job. I hadn't even worked four days when I was indefinitely put on hold due to a sudden lack of business (they couldn't even give their intern 10 hours a week). A check-up call a month later confirmed that I wouldn't be needed again, as they wouldn't even be able to afford another employee for 6 months to a year. Fuck.

Now that that opportunity's gone, I've been keeping an eye on local online postings for graphic design and print jobs, and I've been putting in about five applications a week. However, I have yet to receive a single call back and it's starting to eat away at my morale. 

I've been doing everything I'm supposed to; I always have a decent cover letter and my resume looks good and is informative. I just haven't gotten a bite yet and I'm afraid that all I'm doing is adding hay to the haystack.

Summarize the given text in a few sentences.
<bot>: Been at it steadily for a couple months, not a single call back. Feel like I'm whispering into a crowd. What do?
