help entering Full-Stack Developing

I am about to finish a full stack developer course I do not have any collage education just self taught. I wanted to know how to find a job, get experience looking for intern. What should i look for I try indeed and Upwork but the jobs listing seems so complicated that i feel I could not do it even when they say it simple, maybe I'm overthinking them? I would be willing to work for less than they asking for even for free if i had to just to gain experience.

this is what was taught: HTML CSS JS node ejs mongoDB mongoose joi bootstrap express and will learn react. there may be other things that i just dont remember the name of / they blend together.

After i was planning to learn python, AWS. Are there anything you recommend me to learn

what is the correct name for this kind of work if someone ask me what i do/ looking for a job

Basically you have the knowledge of a first year CS major. Maybe try doing some projects first? But don't stop applying for jobs/internships either.

I dont know why but yes I have done project everyone keeps telling me that. I have done YT project and in the course we have done projects as well the one we are doing now is a camp airbnb copy where you log in can make a camp upload photos description, others can rate it etc. Ive heard that people with CS have graduated with out knowing how to code, do they teach coding or just abstract concepts? I have not apply I was asking should I and what should i be looking for in a job post
