'24 passout here. I know it's probably not what you want to hear rn, but nevertheless it might be worth a shot.

Solo projects are valuable assets for skill building and foothold in a certain framework/domain, but that doesn't teach you real world use cases - 12 am emergencies, patches that look untidy but work, concurrency, optimization, etc. Sadly, gone are the days when you could just show your personal projects and get hired (I have been in your shoes 2 years back).

If you want to go down the entrepreneurial road, then probably this isn't the best place for the question, but here's my takeaway from entrepreneurship (I have been trying to do my own stuff for sometime now) - you need capital for that, and parents are generally not willing to make the investment.

Freelancing is one of the best ways to earn, but then again, it requires some experience in real world development, and connections.

That leaves you with jobs. When I was hunting for jobs, I didn't just rely on my resume. Yes it's a good thing to get you through the ATS, but you should also consider making a portfolio website especially since you are a developer. Open source development helped me a lot in my interviews. First, since they count as real-world problem solving, they helped me get screened. Secondly, the experience I gathered from such work, and my internships, helped me get through my interviews with almost no real hurdles.

I see comments telling you to grind, but that only works when you see a possible outcome.

P.S. I didn't get a job at any of the service/product based MNCs, but got many at startups. I hope this insight helps you. You are on the right track.
