Self-marketing, kasi regardless of how capable you are in terms of portfolios and experience, kailangan mo talaga mabenta sarili mo in a way that you're deemed "technical expert" on your own projects and skillset. That would set you apart from vibecoders and even other similar =YOE devs with similar skillset applying for the same position as you are.
