trying to learn Korean alone

Still no word about the job.  

I have tried to turn up the intensity with the Korean language study.  I am reviewing vocab with the Anki flash cards once or twice a day, and I am going through the koreanclass101.com lessons again and I sometimes watch Korean lessons on YouTube.  I also got some of the Declan Korean softwareI wanted to try out the Pimsleur Korean CDs, but the library didn't have them.  

I took four years of Japanese as an undergrad, and one year as a grad student, so I have experience learning a language, but I have never studied a language by myself.  Without a teacher directing my study I really don't know what to do.  One of my problems is there are too many sources to study from.  Free websites, pay websites, software, books, videos...  I don't know which are best.  What would probably be best would be to just pick one and stick with it, but I never do for very long, so I don't make much progress.
