&quot;In interviews I was not able show my true skills&quot;
Do you have sideproject? This makes a lot easier to show you true skills if you can show to recruiter what you have done, talk about it etc.<p>Besides, to pass well a programming interview you need one more thing: self-confidence. Somebody mediocre but with a lot of self-confidence looks better on job interviews than somebody with good skills but with low esteem and with no confidence.<p>Recruitement is a psychological process rather than technical.<p>Second important thing is to be cool or appear cool to you recruiters. If you&#x27;re good at programming this counts as cool. If you have some interesting sideproject you can talk about, this also counts as cool. If you are up-to-date with current trends (you probably need read much of Twitter, HN, Reddit, Github etc.), this also counts as cool etc.<p>TL;DR keep calm and be confident and appear cool.
