    I am very confident in my ability to contribute in meaningful ways. I know I will not be the best guy on any given team in the near future. But, I know I will be one of the biggest sponges in the place. I am a quick learner and I am very driven to succeed.

    Gosh... That DOES make it sound like you're driven. I believe I'd start out by putting that in a cover letter. Also, contact some recruiters and explain your current positition. IMHO, they're typically the best source for people just starting out.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
