looks fun! screams "junior developer that thinks they need to stand out", peons praise getting a call back to a job application as if getting that is a done deal, but in this industry you'll still have to pass the technical interview which is the real make or break

I've heard about the frictions with getting call backs in the entry level part of the market, and I think its just best to cosplay as senior developer, as its mostly a mindset. you'll lose some roles for your mistakes but there is no passported reputation here, just get employed, wait for some of your coworkers to leave so they can be your collection of references, and keep applying to other jobs.

to get the first jobs, form an LLC and say you work for that, for some time if it works better to get to the hiring manager

I mean, you were building some stuff through college after all right? so its true, backdate it back to your sophomore year, bam 3 years experience. such ambitious, much wow

launder real experience on top of it and replace your resume with that professional validation
