None. I applied for internship at a local tech company, I mentioned on my CV that I was working on a WhatsApp desktop client (which didn't exist at the time) by reverse engineering the Android app. That caught their interest. I got the internship. After 6 months they offered me a permanent contract.

The next job I just applied and did exceptionally well on the interview. The one after that was through a friend that I worked with before, he was starting a company and hired me.
