I suggest you build up your network of contacts at your current job. That means get to know others, help the out, make sure they know your career interests, etc. When some of those move to a new company, they will think of you when opportunities open up. Usually hires through internal referral get special treatment at many companies if the referring individual feels strongly. They can allay any concerns the the interviewers have.
