I'm a few years out of being a recent CS grad and I'm assuming you have checked the normal ones like dice.com . I'm posting to encourage you to apply to any job that you find interesting, even ones for senior developers and particularly those at startups. You probably won't get the job/pay in those senior listings, but if you are a first class programmer and can prove it then the companies that are looking for developer's may have work for you, especially if they can get you at a discount. My startup (not a founder, just my employer) recently filled such a position with a new college graduate partly due to cost considerations. If you're not a first rate programmer, you should learn this and build a portfolio to prove it. That could be just an SVN repository you put code fragments into and send out as a URL in your cover letter. If you need any further resources on this, I can provide some for you.
