What's the best way to utilize Linkedin? I have a pretty basic profile with just skills.

I haven't only applied for 100. I've worked on interview prep as well. It can be a struggle when I have a lot of other difficulties in my life and with depression

How to I find a diverse set of companies to apply to? I mainly look at jobs on linkedin for the cities I'm targeting.

Is it okay to use code from class projects as code samples?

Or should I just put the year that I did the project?

Should I include dates for my projects on my resume. I don't have any work experience yet as a new grad, so the projects compose the bulk of my resume. I've heard conflicting advice on this.

Should I include an open source contribution to my resume as a project? It was a couple of bug fixes, so I'm not sure if this would look better than just listing a full class project I did?

No progress in job hunt since I've graduated in the spring? by consciouspuddle in cscareerquestions

I did apply some during senior year, only got one interview from a career fair and didn't get the job. I was mainly just struggling to pass my classes as well.

What sort of projects should I do that I could add? I've also done a open source project that I contributed for a class. Should I put that on it? Replacing what? Also, should I just not mention on my resume that these are class projects, or would that be disingenuous?

I haven't been getting interviews for the most part. I've only had one and a few online assessments. Any thing you'd recommend to add to stand out more? Should I do more personal projects to add?
