I have a 4 years gap now and going out for jobs soon. But in these 4 years, I did lots of freelancing, hacking and have a good profile.

Apply to remote job providers like uplers and turing. They don't have many jobs but at least you will get a label of working.

Landed job where ? If you are looking to move into tech. It would be easy to call yourself freelancer.

No body gives a shit. Be ready to start with a lesser salary. Build personal projects and show it as freelance projects. I am hoping that you will apply on jobs in under 5 years exp. (0-5) at max
