Not sure what current field you are in at the moment. I found that I was able to bring my Linux knowledge to three of my last / current employers, which was nice, since I wanted to work with the Linux platform professionally like you. Before implementing Linux at my employers, I was interviewed for a job from TCLUG jobs awhile back- got an offer but the pay was very low and I ended up taking another offer. I noticed they we're having a hard time finding experienced Linux folks. If you can show your *nix skills in an interview, that's the key (Linux isn't easy to BS in an interview). And, frankly good Linux people in MN aren't easy to come by based on my experience in a corporate and government settings.
