Coders aren't fungible. Web dev isn't embedded systems isn't databases isn't enterprise business isn't application dev isn't front-end JS.
So you need to isolate what you want to do. However, realize that I - and others like me I've met - key off of theoretical grounding and consider that the foundation to great software development practice. To interview successfully with us - regardless of the position - , you need to be able to speak comfortably about data structures, algorithms, big-O, and some level of formal language theory. Loosely, that's 2-3 courses in the CS curricula.
With your background, I would be looking for you to have spent some time to grasp the theoretical concepts and be able to apply them in practice. I would also be expecting you to have a rock-solid - hardcore - foundation of in-the-trenches software development principles.
