Do you have some tips for someone like me ? Unemployed for 3 years, graduated from IT but worked in another industry (nautical charts). I have little to show. I got an interview quite often, but that's where it ended. 80% companies just have HR department and don't ask any technical questions.

Should I focus on building my portfolio ? (recently focused on Django)

Is it easier to find a job in some "common" field, like software testing or PHP, or rarer like Django where there are much fewer offers but also less competition ?
