I don't know what level you're at, but my experience (from both sides of the hiring process) is that the market is completely saturated for junior engineers. Many companies are primarily/exclusively hiring seniors, and the market there is still _very_ demand-heavy. Beyond that, the usual stuff applies: you'll have an easier time if you have name-brand schools/companies/open-source projects on your resume, or if you have connections inside the company.
