Don't worry too much about it. Start coding (or whatever other CS related thing it is that interests you), does not matter what it is as long as it's engaging enough to keep doing.. Don't do it for others, just for yourself, and do the deep-dives you encounter along the way.. This builds strong skill.

As for jobs, I don't know how tough it is right now, but if you can get your foot in the door, actual experience is way less important than the ability to learn..

Get foot in the door, do work, people see that you're capable, develop your skill while working.
