Ask HN: Advice for applying to Junior Software Engineering roles?

Hi HN. Do you have any advice for applying to Junior Software Engineering roles? How to get through the automated resume screening, does having projects on GitHub help, etc? I hear the job market is "hot," but is that true of entry positions too? I'm a self-taught programmer who recently decided to finish my bachelor's degree in Computer Science. I'll be finishing in a month or so, and I'm trying to do some planning in advance. I guess what I'm asking is: If you were fresh out of college, how would *you* go about getting a job? If anyone is curious about the weird graduation time, I go to wgu.edu, and they let you accelerate through the classes as fast as you can go. I recommend it.
