Awesome! I think you're on the right track. I'm a big believer in public portfolios. When I've been on the hiring side of things that's the first place I look.

Awesome! I think you're on the right track. I'm a big believer in public portfolios. When I've been on the hiring side of things that's the first place I look. Now it's just a question of improving the both the quality and quantity of projects you're showing off. How about getting a mentor to review your project(s)? You're not in an organization yet, but you can pretend you are--request a code review from a programmer you look up to. Teaching others has helped me learn myself in the past. You didn't mention activity on stack overflow--answering questions there can improve your skills and visibility since SO is integrated with SO Careers as well. Great luck to you!
