Post Body

I'm a soon-to-graduate software engineer with no work experience, but I have completed several notable projects:

Website Systems: - Shipping delivery system - Log analyzer system (B2B, multi-tenant architecture)
Service Server: - Client handling through WhatsApp for businesses (sold)
IoT System: - Adjusting art height to eye level

Despite my projects, I’ve faced consistent rejections without even getting interview opportunities. I feel my projects are strong compared to other juniors, and I rate myself as a medium-level developer. However, it seems only top-tier candidates get interviews.

With AI advancements, the competition has become tougher for developers.

What steps can I take to stand out as a junior developer with no work experience and secure interview opportunities?

*Note: I know yeah I used gpt to summarize my post and make it shorter so don't even mention it
