can you (have you) put your projects on github ? maybe if you put 5+ non-trivial projects on there people can see your breadth and depth of skills.
It would help I you added a link with some previous work (portfolio) from you, projects that you participated or an open source project of some kind that you contributed or started perhaps (if any).
Projects. Build (non-trivial) things and put them online. Write about them or make a video. It takes a while to build up a collection of these projects, so start now. But, when interviewing in the future, point to your list of projects to demonstrate that you are so committed to coding that you do it for fun, and you will be surprised at the interest that companies will have in you. You might even find some freelance gigs to give you more experience.This strategy worked for me many times
There's no better resume than a bunch of portfolio projects you've built (imho)
Yes, but try to do a few projects over the next year which are strongly relevant to your top five choices. Toss the results up on Github - or better, attempt to monetize the results (i.e. never tell when you can show).
Ya man. You might have a better chance of lining something up if you post your github profile or a link to some of your side projects so people can see what level you're coding at
Do some projects and build a portfolio, github or your website.
I wouldn't hire someone presenting themselves like this. My immediate energy is "disagreeable and difficult" and it fails the vibes test.I know that's stupid but it's also real.Use something simple like linktree and go way deeper on your blogposts if you want to use that. When I'm in a hiring manager role, I'm looking for works that express depth and competency.Really, if I can find say, 100 or so lines of competently written code, I'm interested.
Definitely a sensible thing to do.The best way to go about it is to do cool projects, and release them online. That way you have something to point to to demonstrate your ability.Not all companies will take this as evidence of your ability, but the ones you want to work for will.Good luck!
It is trivial that you should show some of your works in your job application/CV/website/reverse-job-application (does not matter for me how you call your pitch).I think you can further improve this by:- Providing the source code. You created something technically quite trivial (you have to deal with much more complex beasts even at an entry level job at BigCo), so the fact that you could do this is less interesting than how you solved this. Your coding style speaks a lot about your progra
