Slice makes good points. Also ... it may seem premature, but consider spending a few hundred $$ and sign on with FAPA Premium, ECIC, or similar. They'll stay with you until you are hired at your target level, and they see hundreds of candidates a year. They also have close personal and professional relationships with HR folks at many carriers. They can give you an honest appraisal of your chances, and give you up to date info on who is hiring what kind of applicant and where you are most competitive. I worked with both ECIC and FAPA, and found both to provide great value.
