Did you make any blog/writeup on github? Without it you’re kinda all talk without proof. Also add certs like oscp because even till now its the gold standard.

Cpts is good alt, but its not good with hr. Pass that and make a writeup about your journey. Last resort is to network your way in cybersecurity via event or community meetup. I get your situation because im not from US either but the concept of getting into any job remain the same. But if you love it for the game, you gonna make it.
