What kind of work are you in? As a software/AI guy, I just post my resume up with what state I want to be in, and get 10 calls a day. For my wife who is an avian bioligist, she works connections, applies to dozens of jobs, custom tailors her resume, and gets one interview offer 6 months later in a state we don't want to live in. So I'd say your methods will have to be more aggressive the less marketable your skill set is.
