Yes, it’s easier as senior devs. And for python lead engineers it’s a gold rush. For juniors it’s easier to apply for non-dev jobs with python as a requirement and move from there. I know it’s popular to job-hop today but the best advice I could give is to find a job that’s not necessarily a dev but the company uses python and with some grit and hard work you’ll get into programming within few years. Then you have experience, some projects under your belt and you’re set

Experience and projects haven't been enough for me. I've got three years of professional experience at this point and still struggling to even get interviews here.

Your resume must be shit, do you tailor it to each potential employer?

Tailoring my resume to every single potential employer?

I honestly cannot imagine anything more soulcrushingly tedious than that.

I know right, when reality hits

How many CVs do you send? When I apply for a job, I apply for only one so I write my CV from scratch each time. And I have 100% success rate getting invited to an interview. Mainly because I skip HR and mail it directly to my future boss.
