Having a current job makes a big difference. I kept my resume up despite having had a job I was happy with. I'd get calls pretty often for positions that were similar to my current job. I'd chat with the recruiter, but even before an interview I would tell them I wouldn't leave my job without a 25% pay raise and give them the minimum salary. Every single one would say sorry that they couldn't do that for that position. One of these recruiters called me back a few weeks later and miraculously they had a SENIOR same position open up that they could meet the salary I requested.
