"Your portfolio is small because you can't get a work, you can't get a work because your portfolio is small." This situation is very common, one of the first solution is working as internship or volunteering. Meeting the right person is the key.
Offer low-cost/free service to your local charity or school for start. Keep your relationship with people you work tight and friendly. And don't advertise yourself like a amateur.

Do you have time to create a project of your own? E.g. write a program that parses the link collection at https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome and renders it as a flexible discovery resource.
If you create something interesting, your name/brand will be exposed to a global tech audience, making the site a good reference for your skills.

I'm 17 years old guy with a problem. I cannot get work. I live in Slovenia where it's nearly impossible to find any work, even in factory. Even if I could work in some design company I need proper education.
When I am searching for work on internet there is another problem. My portfolio is too small to be even noticed. I have worked for one semi big company, other two were collaboration with my friend.
What sould I do to fill my portfolio? Freelance sites are no go, Indians rules those sites...
Help me
