Sorry for the pedantic response but the best way to know if you're employable is to solicit offers for employment by applying for positions you're interested in. You'll get valuable data in the form of response rate and possibly feedback on your resume/portfolio. Also, you'll get practice interviewing which is another skill entirely.

No, don't apologize! Your answer is one of the things I had in mind, especially for getting used to being interviewed. I was hoping that this thread will also be helpful to other HNers who have similar concerns and/or doubts.
