Also, I know here in Florida, jobs are often listed on state association
websites.  Networking with other OT's and also networking on lists helps a
great deal.  None of the OT jobs I have had were advertised.  I got them
word of mouth and luck.

Lara,

Most jobs aren't listed on websites.  Have you tried the Sunday edition of
the local paper?
I work at two clinics (a chiropractic rehab center and a pain management
clinic), and neither job was listed anywhere.. I got both jobs, (and the
offer of a third at a pulmonary clinic) by word of mouth.  You might want to
try contacting non-traditional settings and ask if they have any openings.
Also, many clinics contact universities that have OT programs looking for
new grads.  Have you checked with your school?
