Ethereum is very interesting. I see its potential, but right now I cannot figure out what useful app/service I could implement on my own with my current very limited skills.
It almost reminds me of when 10 years ago I started to learn programming in C++. After a while, I learned how to program, but it was very difficult for me to find any useful applications for my skills.
So, maybe there are already companies which would like to hire some ethereum newbies, to build together great new services. I would like to know where I can find companies that 1) already use ethereum as a development platform and 2) are hiring people that they're willing to train.

I think it is a good and valid question. There are not many jobs advertised currently, but there will definitely be more. There is a dedicated Ethereum jobs website here: http://jobs.ethercasts.com
Many developers take a path of starting an open-source project based on Ethereum, getting visibility in the community. Something like this is a great way of landing a good job when they start to appear.
