I understand your frustration, but my advice to you is to keep going and apply for as many jobs you can: Fy1, Fy2 or Locum. Also try to show your applications for jobs and CV to as many people you can: family, friends, doctors. Ask anyone you can o FEEDBACK
and help. This will improve significantly your application for a job. I know that the sytuation with jobs for doctors in the Uk is very unpredictable, but there are still posts within the foundation programme you will manage to get on. Once you get your first post and you are on the system, it will become a lot easier afterwards. Honestly, just keep applying and improving your applications, CV and interview skills.

its hard to get a post but once you are in the system it will get easier. just keep on trying for posts. not every door will open, but the one that should will.
if you dont have any uk experience at all, a clin attachment might be a good idea.
hope it works out for you, keep trying!
