    It doesnt necessarily matter. I had no experience, only had worked on my private project for 3 years, then I asked for an Internship at a local company that I found on stackoverflow and they offered me a paid job :)
    Even if you have zero job experience and no degree you can get a job if you can code. I guess a git project you can show them also helps.

    Do some work for marginally low rates on UpWork (basically work a bit almost for free). That will give you experience and some coffee money. You can then reference your work there as experience.

    That's how people get experience.
