Your best bet may be to find a med size company 1000-10000 employees with an IT shop of at least 100 and start in the help desk or ops etc. Get to know management and show them by taking on larger responsibilities and stay positive and focused. Apply for all upward positions that are more technical even if not a perfect fit. Get a lot of practice interviewing at other companies, and of course keep up on your skiils. That and having a can do 'tude not a pay me first then I show you, you should be in.
