No, seriously. If you Want a job, apply everywhere you might want to work. Don't apply absolutely everywhere, because you have to put some effort into making your applications specific to the target Jobs, but apply at enough places that you find something.
From your question, it doesn't sound like you've invested enough effort in finding out what working at the places you target would be like. It's a mistake to be applying for jobs before you have analysed exactly what job the people there do, and thought thoroughly about what makes you good to do that kind of work.
(The person who gets a job is the one who analyses what the employer needs the best, and convinces them that they are the most capable of giving it.)
