Go to the http://www.xilinx.com/partners/index.htm and look under Design
Services. Altera has probably something similar.

It kind of depends on what you want to do. You can go to Siemens and be
in a department where they put FPGAs in their systems, but end up not
doing anything that goes inside the FPGA. So if you like to do the logic
design, rather look for design/consulting type companies, chances are,
they do the logic that Siemens puts in their systems.

You should also get an idea what type of logic design you would like to
do. There are companies that specialize in implementing DSP algorithms
in FPGAs, others do more telecommunications stuff, etc.

Good luck on you job search.
