Thanks for the input. I think I have something approaching a plan.

Continue to have the recruiters do their recruiter thing, doesn't hurt. Start sending out resumes myself, from LinkedIn, from indeed.com, etc. Start getting some kind of J2EE certification, when I get something put it on the resume. Pick a project using the technologies I think I need, when I get something put it on the resume. Wait for summer to be over and employment picks up (?)

When I get a job I'll update, link back to this post.
