So far, getting the first CS post-doc job was the easiest.  I wanted to
live in Europe.  I asked my advisor (who I knew had contacts in
Germany) where the best places to go there were.  I wrote them,
explaining the situation and that I would need to get reimbursed for
travel expenses if I gave a talk, went on a 10 day speaking trip, and
came back with a job offer.

My other two jobs since then have both been with SCS; this may be
partly because, having been off in Europe, I didn't have many contacts
here in the states.
