Advice from Golang developers – how did you land your job?

I’ve been learning Golang and really enjoy building projects with it, but I see that the number of Go job postings is much smaller compared to other languages like Java or Python. For those of you working as Golang developers, how did you break into the industry?
Did you start with another language and transition into Go later?
What kind of projects or skills helped you stand out?

Any advice Helps. Thanks

I’m helping my GF with excel and need help lol. She works at a hospital and is trying to make an excel schedule for doctors to reserve rooms. She wants drop downs for days of the week (column K) and also different drop down menus in column P for the reserved time slots.

Is it possible to do this with two sets of drop downs (days of week + time slots) and not use index match here? She could make 5 tables for each day of the week, but prefers one table that can be easily navigated by doctors.
