Are you looking for Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook? A start-up? Are you willing to relocate?

I'm mostly looking for a startup but I'm open to anything really; I wish I could relocate, but I'm committed to living in Boulder, CO for the next year.

If that's the case, then you have pretty much a 30 mile radius of companies you are looking at. Determine what the bar is to get an entry level position at those companies, and make your skills match them.
