I have had the same experience as you.
I lived in Florida for 5 months but lived mostly on my savings. I had one poor job that didn't pay well and wasn't enjoyable to go to. The Florida Economy can vary sometimes. In some cities it is doing just fine and working great. Mandy is right, try going to a staffing company, they should find work for you just fine.

Try to get on with a temp agency. Many companies use Temp or Temp to hire to find administrative personal. Apply with more than one temp agency.

Most employers want bilingual English-Spanish candidates in Florida. Do you know Spanish? If yes, then you better contact an agency, and let them to find a proper job for you.
