Perhaps it is the job for which you are applying. Are you qualified for the positions? I would also check my appearance prior to going for the interview. Are you appropriately dressed for the company and position? Do you call them back for a followup? Taking a little time to prepare for the interview might be worth considering. Write down everything you think might be asked in the interview. You can put answers together and write them down, as well. It is good to be well organized when going for the interview. You may not be able to come up with answers for all potential questions, but you an prepare as much as possible. Good luck.

Ollie,
you don't say what type of jobs u are going for.
so it is hard to make suggestions.
understand for most common jobs, for each listed there are 20 or more applicants. u want to keep hunting till u find one.
visit the bookstores get copies of
'48 days to work u love'
'what colour is your parachute'
read take notes underline reread and ACT on the info. May be what u are doing isn't to your best interest. suggest u take any job so u have cash flow and because employers find hiring working people is a better deal.
u may need to assess what you look like when putting the application.
if your open to thinking outside box incomes email me.

The first place to start is a resume. Look on the web for examples to use.

Be clean. Be confident. Be assertive when asking about employment.

just dress smart, be confident, practice what you are going to say as its so easy to umm and forget things when you are under pressure. Have you got a good cv there are loads of that will help you with and job centre will too. But it is true that a lot of places these days cant even be assed to ring or send a letter to people just to say thanks but no thanks and I think it is really rude.

you need to be dressed smart and walk into an interview with confidence,don't come across as shy and reserved, give a good firm hand shake, ask questions as though your really interested but don't be to cocky, then thank the person for taking the time to see you... good luck

In the interview game, the biggest liar wins. Remember the biggest liar in your Sunday school class was the teacher.
