Looking for a Junior programmer's position

Hi,
I am a recently qualified SCP1.2, and am a UK citizen looking to live and work permanently in the US.
I am completely aware that at the moment it is extremely difficult to gain sponsorship by employers for a visa, especially in this industry. However I am an optimitic person, and I am hoping that there may be a company out there willing to take me under their wing.
I am looking for a junior programming position, and I feel would make an ideal candidate for a company looking for someone they want to shape into their ideal employee. My skills include OO-Programming, Java, HTML, JavaScript, Swing, and Pascal. Having the ability to create GUI's, development of applets, client-server and echo-server applications. I have an excellent understanding of data declarations, exception handling, flow control, garbage collection, Java fundamentals, operators, threads and Java packages.
If there is someone out there who is able to help please reply.
Thank you.
