If you are trying to get a job as a software engineer but lack a degree and experience then you need a way to show off your skills. The best way to do this is by building a project but not all projects are created equal. In this video, I go over a project I recently found on the internet which perfectly showcases what you should be doing in order to stand out and show off your abilities.
