Is there some major job finding trick I’m missing?
The best ‘trick’ for job-finding is to get one from someone you know. I’m not sure what you can do with that.
Generally speaking, there are a lot of people who aren’t good at thinking but have training in programming, and comparatively not a lot of people who are good at thinking but not good at programming, and the latter are more valuable than the former. If I were looking for someone entry-level for webdev (and I’m not), I’d be likely to hire you over a random person with a master’s degree in computer science and some experience with webdev.

Heh, that’s what I figured, and that’s my weak point. (At least you didn’t say, “Pff, just find one on the internet!” as some have been known to do.)

Thanks. I don’t doubt people would hire me if they knew me, but there is a barrier to overcome.
