Sorry to hear it's been rough. But it seems you are getting traction? My philosophy is that half the skill in finding a job, (at least in my recent experience) is luck. Keep trying.

Thank you! Yes at least getting some feedback from my applications now (and interviews) but now people seem shocked that I've been out of the job for 1+ years. I don't think people who haven't been on the job market in the last year or so fully understand how tough things are/were...
