What have you built between finishing your Bootcamp and now?

Several web applications, three of which are served. Some websites. A lot of coding challenges - some take a few hours, some days.

Good! It's worth pushing that as much as, maybe more than, the bootcamp.

Do you have a mentor? Someone in the industry who can give you feedback? There may be something simple that you can change

I have a few people in my life who have been giving me advice. I've been given mostly minor resume changes, and then "you should find something soon". Most people I've gotten advice from sympathize because it is difficult getting the first job - but also tell me they are shocked that I haven't found anything yet. I'm always trying to change what I'm doing if it can help.

If you have been growing/honing your skill set, is your code available on github? Has anyone reviewed it for you?

One of the challenges with growing in isolation is the lack of feedback from peers.
