I am going on ~2 years, the longer your out, the less the chance you will get back into the workforce.
Thankfully my parents are letting me stay in the house while I go to school.
- Network the **** out of yourself! Get all over LinkedIn, Facebook, and other social sites that you can find work on. Believe it or not, people have found their dream job on Facebook. Along those lines...get anything you wouldn't want recruiters to see off of your profile. Put a professional image of yourself as your profile pic. Make sure you have a 100% profile on LinkedIn and try to get some recommendations.
Luckily like 365g700 my mom was letting me stay at home so long as I was either in school or had a job now that I have both though she is a lot more happy with me. lol
Around August I should be moving into my first place with my fiance so things appear to be coming together.
