I just checked the folder where i keep all my job applications and there are 75 cover letters sitting in there from the past six months. That doesn't include applications I've made using online forms that make you type it in. Heading towards 100 total! I've made it through to being interviewed several times, but have so far always been the runner up. Job hunting is brutal. 

Aside from applying for permanent positions i also consult on a freelance basis, providing NFP strategy, codesign, and governance. 

Anyway, things are tight (I'm completely f!*%ing broke). If any of you have contacts with non profits and charities in Melbourne that need someone smart and experienced, i would appreciate the lead. Flashy CV available on request.
