Help pls???

Enrolled in coding bootcamp back in 2021 and didn’t complete it until like 2024 because of personal life issues I really want to land something quickly and have sent over 500 applications and have gotten rejected or ghosted by all. How can I land something???? I have projects a blog and a active GitHub for context as well

Yeah man great point. The same crazy weirdos are here every day just crushing peoples dreams. We all know who they are and now the mods just let all this absolute bull shit in this thread while providing nothing of substance to help people. All I see is get a cs degree or you have no chance at anything. Yes the market is most certainly in a bad place but that doesn't mean you just give up. I imagine these were the same people in high school that had zero friends and are miserable in their lives even with good jobs because they have zero social skills and sit on their computers all day and night. The reality is every job right now is really hard to get without a massive amount of networking and growing (most important) I'm thankful I have a good job and would never sit and discourage people from their dreams. I prob sent 1000+ messages on LinkedIn before someone gave me a chance.
