This is your only blocker to success. I also had a lack of self confidence -- I put this up to the pedestal we put university degrees upon.

By what you've done so far, it sounds like you are better than most 90% of people finishing with Computer Science degrees. There are employers who can see that -- but most recruiters do not (though they do latch on to buzzwords).

Demonstrate your passion and your skill and you'll easily get a job somewhere in the industry.
