I read a comment like this 2 years ago, but was able to understand it only now. Get in the market and work something. Anything. Even if it's small and simple. People are looking for things quite different than what is taught in school. They are also looking for things you'll never think of and the implementation isn't just coding knowledge.

I'm living in a Third World country, so freelancing is my way. It's not quite hard to get some jobs, but you need a portfolio and few connections.
