A few months ago I got familiar with the Product Hunt and I posted some of my products here and on different platforms; they are getting a decent amount of visitors and liked by users, and simultaneously I get the opportunity to work for the startup as a freelancer, and I complete the product and get my reward.
Now the problem is I am not getting the attention of the more people who are looking for the full-stack freelancer, and my placement season started, and the companies that came to my college were more interested in DSA than development.
Money is a important factor as it will help me in many ways. So, right now, it's difficult to choose to build my own product and wait for my freelance work, or focused on placement.
Your suggestions will help me.

Financial stability is important, even though it can be difficult to achieve.

I’d probably dive into building my own product.
I’d lean towards freelancing for now. It’s a good way to gain real-world experience and build my portfolio while still having time for my studies.
@eugenie_thompson Thanks for the suggestion Eugenie. Do you know anyone who is looking for the freelance full-stack developer? Here is my portfolio: https://www.dheeraj-jha.tech/
I’d focus on securing a placement first.
As a student, I’d look into placement. It’s practical and helps set up a career path after graduation.
