I have a degree in Computer Science and recently finished a 9 month software development Boot Camp. Been sending out resume and applications to quite a few postings off of LinkedIn but so far getting very little response. I have an interview tomorrow but not sure how legit it is, outside of that I haven’t been called up for any interviews yet. Comrades in the software industry please help me out with any advice you can. I’m willing to relocate to pretty much anywhere as long as I can get employment in this field that will lead to good experience and development.
Go to career fairs. It’s very unlikely that you will get a job through a purely online application. Talk to people face-to-face whenever possible, and hand out physical copies of your resume. If you’re lucky enough to know any people in the industry, ask them to send your resume directly to their recruiters.
Work on some personal projects and upload them to a public git repo, if you haven’t already. Recruiters like being able to see that you’ve made something that works.
Good idea, I’ll look for career fairs happening near me, thank you !
