Anx – even if you are in another state, try those old bosses anyway. They may be happy to hear from you and people know people all over. I know several people in Denver in my industry and I’m in SD. In fact, I may even need a perl person in a few months there.
If you are really in the top 20% (and I have no reason to belieive you aren’t), people are happy to help and hear from you. Even 1 introduction to someone to have lunch with gives you a boost, even if they aren’t hiring or even if they are in the wrong industry.
