Networking is key. I've never cold-submitted my resume anywhere.

Networking doesn't necessarily mean standing around in a room with a name tag and making small talk. Put your work out where people can see it; release open source, talk at conferences, etc. Then the jobs will find you.

HN has also been very helpful; a few kind folks here helped me deal with Google's hiring process.
