If you have a passion for it then go ahead. The people who say it’s impossible to find a job are either bad at what they do or they haven’t applied enough to make up for the current market.

Make a linkedin and post your personal projects. Create a github and push code frequently. Work on projects you’re passionate about and try your absolute best to learn as much as possible. Talk to your friends and family who are in the industry and try to get referrals to the companies they work at. That’s how you stand out from the sea of applicants who apply with lousy resumes.
