    Do you just drop off resumes/applications, or do you ask to see the manager and give them to them personally?

    How many have you given out, all told?

    make sure to get a friend to read over your resume and make sure is ok
    dont go with other peopel to drop off resumes
    dress nice for dropping them off, clean clothes etc. best with black dress pants and a classy shirt ie button up
    dont do your hair super crazy
    be nice, smile, be cordial. ask for the manager or supervisor if theyre free at the moment. say something like "hi there i was hoping to drop off a resume in case you might be hiring soon?"
    read the newspapers classifieds section (often online now too), drop your resume off at places that are hiring. and at places that arent but that youd like to work at. make sure your references arent family members or only friends, get a teacher or volunteer coordinator or something on there too
    volunteer until you get a job, or do both, at least then youll have something like work experience minus the pay

    I can't ever remember it being hard to get a job.

    Are you in Newfoundland or the Maritimes or something?

    obviously she's not black, otherwise it would be illegal not to hire her
