I'm getting another Bachelor's degree

I'm confused by this statement. For a prospective software engineer, "portfolio" typically refers to a website, often hosted on GitHub Pages, that shows the projects you've worked on. This allows hiring companies to see your body of work. Ideally, it will include one or more recognizable open-source projects. Do you have this kind of portfolio, and are you actively working on it?

For applying to companies, are you getting first/second/third interviews? You may also want to try reaching out directly to recruiters at companies in your area that don't have active job listings, along with any/every consulting company and third-party recruiter who will talk to you. There are also lots of non-profits that would be happy to have a software/IT volunteer, which you can add to your resume.
