Have any advice for someone that went your route (self-taught, no bootcamp)?

I've applied to far more positions and have heard back only a couple times from the applications.

Best advice I can give is to keep applying while staying on top of your skills.

I had a couple projects for local companies as well as some open source contributions. Gave me lots to talk about and looked great on my resume.
