Indeed.com seems to be where a lot of people have success. Finding IT work while having to compete with half of India is pretty tough these days. I ended up having to change careers entirely after getting laid off from my programming job in 2010.

Eh I'm a part of Indeed but after a few months and countless apps it's just really a ghost town for me. I did ask my a programmer friend on his thoughts wrt to outsourcing but they mentioned there's quite a few downsides like additional headaches when the team is in different time zones and all.

Thanks, I checked it for NYC but since I started learning how to code 3 weeks ago I'm not sure if it's the best route for me atm.

Really? Consensus I've seen is that the dev job market is booming. 2010 was pretty bad, but you could probably get back in now if you're good.
