I'd recommend creating a website with a portfolio of projects.

The portfolio should include a section for each project, summarizing what tech stack you used, the year you finished the project, the name & 1 sentence on the project's purpose.

With a link to the code on github/gitlab, and a link to more in-depth page about the project.

This way you'd have a summary, links to code, and an in-depth page about each project. On the website you might also include info about your professional background, education, & personal interests outside of work.

I have such a website, and it has helped me get hired.

They mentioned not having any projects to speak of to link to
Then they need to create small to medium projects-- For example projects that take 1 week to 6 months to create. This can also be projects from CS, IT, statistics, or other technical programming-involved classes.
