Wishing you all the best in your job search. Some organizations have lower membership fees for students or emerging professionals. Also had another thought, that many organizations have conferences that you can volunteer at and often then do not have to pay the registration fee. I am doing that this coming Saturday as thought would be a good way to begin to network etc. etc. Global Museum is a great resource and would imagine there are similar websites for writing as well where you are that may be helpful as well. Though easier said than done...try not to be discouraged as job hunting is one of the hardest things to do and takes persistence, patience, and time...that's my mantra at least. I've just started reading the What Color is Your Parachute book which am finding has some helpful advice as well. Sending you hugs.
