Projects for landing a Golang job
Nice job! A while back, I bumped into https://github.com/go-faker/faker, which got integrated into https://benthos.dev for fake data generation. What were the design considerations when you started gofakeit? Does it have any niche features which faker doesn't provide or is there anything you'd like to see added to it? I'll give it a spin later to explore the API a bit.

Projects for landing a Golang job
Contributing to somebody else’s Open Source project is usually a good way to show your skills and get a CV booster. I’m sure there are many Go projects you can contribute to, no matter what you’re interested in. Have a look at https://github.com/avelino/awesome-go and https://github.com/uhub/awesome-go for inspiration. If Data Streaming is of any interest, https://benthos.dev is a great project to contribute to. I’ve been a constant contributor for over 2 years now and I love it.
