Its been a while, heres my update
April 24, 2018 So far the search has been difficult for the past couple of weeks. I have had a couple of lucks in getting interviews but the interviews were a bit challenging as usual, not only that but the fact that I was only applying to New York positions, it made it more difficult because I am not local to the area. I spoke with my career advisor in switching up my strategy of finding a job and she concurred that applying to local positions would make it seem easier because of the lesser resources in order to interview potential candidates. So for now I am just applying to local front end developer positions out here in the west, to make it easier on me. In the mean time while I'm waiting for my applications to process through, I did a huge amount of side projects to fill in the time on my coding journey. My portfolio is fully polished, my github looks pretty active justifying from the charts, and also I am learning some new technologies on the side as well.
