I hear you. I am on somewhere around a 0/20 streak right now. The industry can have a lot of extremely pretentious people. I think you just need to be your best self; show as much true passion about development as you have and wait for somebody at a company you like who shares and appreciates your enthusiasm. Also keep up with personal projects on Github to show you are active. This is what was holding me back for a while before my last job.


Thanks for the advice, and good luck to you.
