Watch this before applying for jobs as a developer.

A focused portfolio beats a scattered one when job hunting as a developer. Rather than listing every project you've ever built across different domains, pick two or three projects that directly align with the specific role you're targeting. For backend roles, this means showcasing an API project, a database-heavy web app, and something demonstrating performance optimization or deployment with Docker and Kubernetes. A recruiter should be able to instantly identify what kind of developer you are from your portfolio alone.
