Can you showcase any projects you've worked at in the mean time?
That way you could fill some gaps with project stories which might make it easier for you.
Good luck with the search!
I see the benefit of that. At my previous jobs, I worked on some big name products in use today. I don't have a public personal dev repo profile (with all of those years working under heavy NDAs).
The private projects I worked on afterwards were minor pet projects for day-to-day life improvements (I don't think those matter).
I think this is maybe one place to begin with: create some public projects.
@rabbits_unite I have heard that even seemingly mundane pet projects are considered a good idea to show...something about potential hiring managers having access to see how your code looks, how you document stuff, how you can potentially organize a project, etc. Of course, if the role you will apply to has less to do with coding, then this matters less i supoose. Also, this is only something that i have heard...Not sure if it would be the "thing" that gets you hired or not. But, i guess if it pertains to the role you're appying to, then i guess it has some logic with it.
