How did you guys manage to get your first job?

Hi there!
Probably quite a burn out question. But I still feel compelled to ask it. Maybe as a way to calm myself a bit.

You see this is quite a personal matter. 337 days ago I made a promise that I will study everyday for the end goal which is to get a remote job. I feel proud to say that I’ve done a pretty good job in maintaining that promise.
I don’t want to bore you with details but as I reach the 365day mark I will begin a new chapter within this trip I choose to take. And I don’t really know how to approach this. I’ve practiced leetcode I’ve done tests I’ve worked really hard to make it work.

But I am reaching the end of this chapter and the next one kinda scare me. I honestly just want to know how.
How is it done? Can it be done? Could I do it?
I guess its normal to feel this way specially since I will take a leap and literally give it all towards this dream.
Maybe more than a dream a necessity. I really need to do this.
I feel like I need to do it. And I understand it is not a need. Its a desire but one that its really digging deep into me.

With that being said. Any guidance, help, resource, comment, literally anything that you can or want to tell me believe I will find useful and I will appreciate it.

Thank you for your time!
