A software engineer spent 8 hours daily applying to entry-level coding jobs for 6 months. She was rejected 357 times before receiving an offer.
FYI, she went through Hack Reactor's 1000 hour full-stack coding camp and had an online (github?) portfolio. She previously worked as an assistant general manager in the Californian restaurants' industry.
