[0 YoE, Unemployed, Software Engineer/Tech-Related Roles, United States]

I have been unemployed for 2.5 years since graduation. I had a part-time job tutoring but got laid off 7 months ago when the company closed. Since then, I've been working on a mobile app that's now on the Google Play and Apple App stores.

At the beginning of my job search, I would create cover letters for each role, but I got burnt out quickly after constant rejections. I probably applied to around 200 jobs since I graduated, but I'm going to start applying again with a stronger focus on networking.

I'm willing to apply to any role in the U.S. (but primarily California) that will take me at this point. As for my resume, I followed a template and added some metrics to each description. I've tweaked it a couple of times, but I'm looking for more feedback on the wording, formatting, and strength of each section. Thank you so much!
