My advice is to take the sure thing right now. You can always keep looking. Also, look at Federal jobs. The gov't is always hiring! Heck, I got 3 e-mails today (granted they were from the same recruiter for the same job) for an Exchange admin in Maryland. But I'm sure the DC/VA/MD area is not the only place where they have IT positions open. Take a look: http://www.usajobs.gov/
