Projects to showcase on a 1 YOE Full Stack Developer resume?

Basically the title. I am currently looking to build a good skillset and an attractive profile to land a job. I wanted to ask what sort of projects are usually expected from a person with 1 YOE (2022 grad)? Moreover, what kinda projects would blow your mind? I have a fair bit of proficiency in React and I primarily work with Java + OracleDB for backend. I have started learning Go out of curiosity as well. Although welcome, I am not looking for specific ideas. I want to know how complex or ambitious should a project be to be considered at par if not impressive for my experience. Thank you! TLDR; What projects in a 1 YOE full stack developer would make you go "Wow, I would hire that guy instantly!"?

I'm just a 1.5yoe developer and If you ask me, I would like to know more about the kind of work you have done in your current organisation and its impact. What kind of ownership you have shown. I'm not in a state to suggest something but I think at a certain point when you cross 1yoe and unless your project is not out of the world or really have active users in it. I don't think anyone is going to ask you more about your personal project. Maybe 5-8 mins at Max. They will ask more about your current work. Unless you mention your project separately to them.
