You might consider contacting and visiting a temp/staffing agency to help with finding a job. You can use the phone book or the Internet to find ones in your area.
Often times they have clerical or laboratory, or other jobs lined up and they match you with an employer. Usually no benefits and often times it is only for a specific time period/temporary (6months, 9months, or longer...depends.) Sometimes, the employer might consider hiring the temp after some time.
Another option, although I am not sure of this, would be to see if there is an unemployment office in your area. They usually have advisors and offer skills training and also have job postings. I know you need a job ASAP but they might have more listings and other resources. I am not sure if they will permit you to use their resources if you are not someone who is in unemployment filing but it's worth a try to call and find out.
In both cases, you need to have your resume ready or work on that.
