In that case I would try to specialize, at least for marketing purposes.

For example pick Angular/React/Vue instead of typescript/javascript or another specialized stack.

If most of your colleagues are doing c# mvc then don't do the same thing, but complement them. Either pick a frontend technology as I already mentioned or do openapi specs or something else that's useful for your ideal client.

In my experience people prefer hiring specialists and will overlook other missing qualifications if you tick a core skill.

Take care, Martin

I was looking for a job a while back and honestly specialization sounds like a poor idea. Everyone seems to be leaning more towards full stack.

Someone with 1 year iOS, 1 year crypto, 2 years Angular will probably have better luck than someone with 4 years Angular.

What about 4 years crypto?
