Have you considered applying to temp positions? Part or full time. There are staffing companies that focus on specific industries, so you might not find an engineering job, but you could find a comp sci or IT support position. Just to get your foot on the door and get some work experience while also pulling a paycheck.
Many people I know have gotten onto the ladder this way, myself included.
