Feeling very down and ready to give up

I am a new grad NP that is desperate to find a job. I have applied to probably 50 jobs or more in my area. The problem is as soon as they hear that I am a new grad with no experience I can see their faces fall and they mentally check out. I'm a seasoned nurse with tons of experience in all areas but especially cardiology. I know the RN experience doesn't count towards NP but still. I graduated with top honors and during clinicals I had my own patient group andy preceptor highly recommended m. Unfortunately, she moved away and so didy chance to hire on at that company. I did get one offer but it was for less than I am making now and I had to do call on the weekend for free. My question is how did everyone get over this hurdle?
