I'm in a similar position in regards to lack of work experience, but I've been programming for many more years. What I've been doing is picking up volunteer positions that want some frontend work. So far it hasn't made a difference in application responses, but its worth a shot.

Doing volunteer it's important, it increases the value of the CV, I've been going to meetups to connect with more people of the dev community, it's helping but I need to get a strategy to get invitations instead of applications.

I hope you can find something perfect for you :) it's just about confidence, thanks for your advice!
