Mirajobs is mostly focused on passive job search - the idea is that you publish your anonymous job seeker's profile and let recruiters reach out to you with job opportunities. If a proposal is interesting, you can reveal your contacts and get interviewed as usual. That is more suitable for those who are already employed and are passively open for a better role or would like to have a Plan B for a case of an unexpected job loss. At the same time, Mirajobs also provides the traditional job search model when recruiters publish vacancies and job seekers apply to them. In this case, I would recommend browsing https://mirajobs.com/jobs and sending your CV. Now, regarding your resume. Do you have any experience with Python at all? Can you list any projects that you have completed already, or you are just learning? If you provide more details, I would be happy to help.

Thank for your response. It looks like you do have some experience to show. I'd suggest to list the projects on your resume, explain which technologies. framworks methodologies, APIs you used, what challenges you had to overcome and what was the result (impact). You could also emphasize any accompanying problems that you solved like dealing with ambiguity, any requirements clarification work that you did (implicitly or explicitly), development operations (DevOps) processes if you have any in place. Did you had a chance to collaborate with someone while working on those projects? It would be great to mention that too, as team-working is a skill that many employers would like to see. Did you do any integration work like with external services via an API? You could mention that too, and briefly mention that challenges you faces. At the same time, I would suggest to keep your CV relatively short i.e. 2 pages and be ready to share details about all the above aspects during an interview. Hope this helps!
