Best practices which I identified for fresher’s are:

A resume which covers all the technologies is not good and it will show a negative impact while screening. Tailor your resume to the position and technology you are applying. Your resume should depict how your current skills match the new job requirement.

Create a target list of companies to which you can apply, know about the background of the companies. A short research of the company before applying really helps you through the interview.

Make your resume available in all the leading job boards and job search engines.

Network yourself properly and find some referrals from your old friends and neighbors.

Try searching for jobs in job search engines which list jobs from all company career pages, news papers and job boards.

More than anything keep your spirits high.
