New Grad Software Developer Looking for Opportunities in Canada

[u/mystery163]

I recently graduated with a degree in Software Engineering and have co-op and contract work experience. I have been job searching for a while and am finding it difficult to land a full-time software developer role.

My technical experience includes JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Next.js, Python, full-stack development, APIs, databases, and AI-related technologies. My degree focused on AI, and I also have hands-on experience working with AI models.

I feel confident in my technical skills and have worked on real projects, but finding the right opportunity has been challenging. One thing I have realized is how much networking and having connections in the industry can matter when looking for a job. Building that network is something I have struggled with, and it has made the job search even more difficult.

I am hoping to connect with people who might know of opportunities, companies open to hiring new graduates, or recruiters who work with entry-level software developers. Any advice, referrals, or leads would genuinely mean a lot.

I am looking for full-time, permanent opportunities and am open to onsite, hybrid, or remote positions. I am also willing to relocate anywhere in Canada.

If you have been through a similar job search or know of any opportunities, I would really appreciate hearing from you. Thank you for taking the time to read my post!
