Change is hard...

I have been looking for work for a few months now. I got demoted from my position in December, which totally blindsided me. I stayed because I had just bought a car and it was just before Christmas and I would be left with no money. Shortly after I was demoted I put my resume online and updated my LinkedIn profile. Soon after my boss saw the updated profile and asked me about it. I told him I was just checking out the site. Not much came of the job hunt until recently and I have gone on a few interviews but no job yet. This is strange for me as I have usually been pretty good at getting jobs from my interviews. Its starting to discourage me a bit. I even had an interview for my dream job at the harley shop but it didnt pan out as I had hoped. So I keep plodding on and hoping something will stick. My partner says I am being to honest with prospective employers in telling them I was demoted but I believe in honesty and integrity and I kept hoping some on would pick up on that and see it as a good quality...or does no one care about that anymore...
