Finding It Tough To Survive by mrfizy(op):
I am a frontend web developer with more than 3 years experience in building user interfaces and functionalities.
My web development portfolio is here
https://otuekongarthur.netlify.app/
Modified:
This is the notable projects I have done.
https://holychildprepschool[.]org/
https://capacitybay[.]org/
I also handle technical documentation with some of my articles and documentation here
https://dev.to/fizy_hector
https://arthur-87.mintlify.app/introduction

I have also written technical articles that I can't post the links to here because of the non disclosure agreement I signed.

It's been so tough getting a job or even a gig from any of these(most times It gets even impossible to even feed and or buy data).
To the bosses in the houses,I will really appreciate your advice on what I am not doing right and I could possibly take up some job off your plate if you are too busy

Saw your portfolio bro its sleek nice.

I am in no way into web development but I can tell you this.
If you want to start landding gigs of any kind kind, you need to know backend as well.
If you can fully learn and operate front and backend, I can link you up with some gig.
But they only employ specials with experiment in both front and backend with good operational work. Heck they might even give you a sponsorship visa who knows.

Your get portfolio and your work experience i might be able to help but I am not guaranteeing you 100 but still.
Re: Finding It Tough To Survive by ahmedsaniadamu(m):
In this AI era a lot is expected from you as a developer, after I seen your portfolio there is no any good site projects and does not seems like a portfolio of someone that has three years of experience.
Frontend development nowadays is like starting point of every individual getting into software development I will advise you to also up skills as the role has a lot of competition and also build a lot of projects that you can showcase

You guys should learn to defang your urls so it's easier to copt-paste. Something like hxxps://portfolio-dd913[.]web[.]app. It's easier to copy this and edit rather that the one you posted that has spaces and has dot spelled out. I say make I give you update

For sycamore, is it just their website you did, or did you do the actual loan management app?

Your projects would have been amazing if you started to learn to code in 2016. Unfortunately with AI, the bar for juniors is insanely high. These sort of projects won’t even pass through recruiters screening. You have so much work to do. Your hospital management system is a url shortener embarassed embarassed
Re: Finding It Tough To Survive by Kaczynski: 4:35pm On May 03, 2025

She na me the fine work?
Re: Finding It Tough To Survive by Karleb(m): 7:45pm On May 03, 2025
Go to jobberman, indeed, linkedin and hotnigerianjobs.

Refresh them daily and when you see a role that fits you, take time to apply. Write a convincing cover letter and send an optimized resume.

FE developers no suppose dey find job.

Your 3yrs of experience, is it in learning or in actual job?

Yeah I agree with this, your portfolio quality doesn't highlight your experience, it shows alot of newbie vibes, the freelance and tech market is highly competitive at this period. Also you are not limited to just coding, you could do other things.

Even if you are outside, it's hard too, tech isn't recruiting for coders like that, the few senior engineers with AI can reduce the need for alot of engineers, the alternative route is building a solution and servicing clients. the future just got dark quickly lol

My biggest grouse with these youngings coming through. Ona kan o w'oja (apologies if there are any spelling errors).

Agreed that Programming is the oyster in this field. But there are so many other routes.

Bros, this is not true. cheesy

There are still tech jobs in Nigeria. We can argue that the salary and work conditions are not the best but at least, tech still has more jobs than other sectors in Nigeria.
