Looking for a Labview job. Any offers or suggestion​s?

Question

Hi, everybody!
I wish we had labview.jobs or something. Since we have not yet,
I would appreciate any hints regarding looking for a Labview job,
especially for people with just 1 year of experience,
beside emailing everybody on the NI Alliance list and searching
general purpose job sites.
In case prospective employers read this, my cover letter and resume follow:
Dear Manager:
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule.
You will find that my resume which is attached,
outlines why I am an excellent fit for a
position with your company. In addition to my broad
educational background including two Masters degrees
in Electrical Engineering and Physics, numerous
Computer Science courses taken, and ten years of
diverse experience in programming and system
administration and support, I have just finished a
successful control and data acquisition project in
Labview which is also described in my resume.
My experience and background enable me
to master any software development tool and/or
environment very quickly, which makes me a perfect
