I know this isn't the forum for this kinda question but I've been an avid reader and commenter here for 10+ years and I feel I align pretty well with the demographic. Which is why I'm asking for help.

Recently I've been applying to remote jobs, but literally all of my applications have been rejected or ghosted. It's so much different than when I was looking a couple years ago. I'm in my mid-20s, with 7-8 years of professional experience and have been programming since I was a kid. I have FAANG names on my resume, jobs and internships (when I was a student). I consider myself a reasonably good engineer - I don't think I'm hot shit, but I would've expected to get to the first screening at least somewhere.

Has the landscape changed so much in the past few years? Or, if I'm doing something wrong and raising a huge red flag to everyone, how the hell do I figure out what it is? Getting kinda jumpy about my prospects, it's been disheartening.","time":1675255888,"title":"Ask HN: Reject/ghost on all job applications with 8 YoE, what am I doing wrong?","type":"story"}],[34547265,{"by":"code_Whisperer","descendants":1047,"id":34547265,"kids":[34548908,34548315,34551547,34548699,34553253,34548985,34548992,34547956,34548356,34548973,34548881,34552119,34547908,34552010,34548438,34549199,34548276,34548974,34552466,34547830,34548884,34548530,34548305,34548225,34548175,34548661,34551276,34548871,34552802,34548365,34549036,34547698,34548904,34548004,34552969,34548893,34548511,34552793,34553498,34551744,34551298,34553758,34552026,34556050,34552765,34548901,34548743,34548874,34554333,34549220,34552512,34551875,34548158,34553831,34552991,34551480,34551896,34550758,34554576,34553838,34548118,34548749,34548466,34552622,34552563,34556073,34553256,34548501,34549450,34549283,34549544,34548729,34555815,34547849,34552424,34552172,34549110,34548318,34556122,34553448,34555351,34548578,34548354,34549192,34548822,34547758,34550321,34556023,34553251,34547826,34551553,34549525,34548259,34550325,34552736,34548137,34551648,34552927,34552816,34552945,34551409,34551759,34551280,34548065,34549775,34553966,34548170,34552799,34548467,34551489,34549520,34550972,34555125,34547596,34553554,34555080,34555836,34551507,34549573,34549037,34552607,34549202,34552670,34552610,34554150,34552887,34556796,34551789,34547882,34549572,34548949,34552891,34548935,34553684,34552617,34548561,34558285,34553091,34552366,34549016,34547811,34556509,34556019,34548617,34549338,34552759,34549256,34570329,34551287,34548427,34555761,34549253,34553841,34552770,34552226,34548409,34547809,34554811,34549430,34548080,34554771,34553691,34550299,34549100,34552078,34548732,34556712,34549812,34548492,34555687,34556598,34653005,34553732,34552751,34549145,34653393,34547968,34556254,34548794,34552951,34548529,34548439,34548247,34555971,34550005,34547791,34548910,34642306,34548618,34551781,34551452,34557339,34549541,34552460,34548806,34549228,34552973,34550947,34552286,34548592,34548773,34548155,34552846,34557719,34555610,34548539,34553728,34552106,34548810,34552059,34553558,34557174,34548606,34554417,34555829,34549852,34556445,34548793,34551712,34578983,34557769,34552937,34548058,34555614,34549170,34553097,34547890,34655411,34552459,34548580,34556551,34547985,34549320,34553595,34554974,34552265,34548458,34578570,34555628,34547966,34555541,34553993,34551784,34556610,34548165,34576594,34548090,34550446,34548321,34548070,34549505,34555558,34549509,34549019,34547961,34654791,34550543,34552838,34548159,34550775,34548069,34553501,34554257,34551313,34552058,34551315,34548095,34548978,34550186,34552105,34548134,34556307,34551933,34550677,34554787,34554818,34549125,34549343,34552708,34548442,34549363,34547932,34550261,34549163,34549004,34553103,34548360,34552594,34547927,34548173,34554110,34552006,34551600,34558179,34549396,34548693,34548658,34571019,34548742,34549451,34551632,34554768,34549959,34548844,34548112,34549372,34549516,34548281,34554705,34550929,34553608,34557889,34549021,34549159,34556544,34548323,34548709,34553403,34557761,34555767,34548344,34548926,34548130,34574983,34553464,34551832,34548498,34549427,34554440,34557452,34549022,34548135,34548610,34553855,34554871,34553114,34567546,34549156,34548418,34549953,34549160,34548559,34548562,34554307,34648141,34553258,34551915,34549129,34548233,34553885,34548142,34555976,34551343,34641619,34552289,34551843,34549439,34548698,34553961,34557561,34554470,34554864,34549089,34555865,34551603,34548380,34552325,34553931,34550746,34548708,34551301,34556059,34553709,34555060,34548119,34551268,34554281,34547866,34552522,34548624,34548088,34552045,34560599,34548178,34738957,34556825,34555565,34553967,34555684,34555190,34696683,34548602,34548502,34561339,34547960,34553475,34553835,34547983,34551694,34549819,34562295,34553127,34549532,34554640,34552915,34551469,34554636,34552916,34552071,34550504,34552495,34553715,34554661,34550482,34548890,34655447,34638775,34551659,34557633,34549366,34553077,34548718,34557099,34555502,34549171,34552648,34550452,34549078,34549350,34549113,34549495,34552272,34548858,34552161,34550799,34551764,34548196,34553318,34548569,34548104,34557073,34551801,34559120,34572743,34551640,34548836,34547994,34559112,34548379,34555544,34548993,34640924,34551589,34551582,34549359,34548445,34553808,34555863,34555649,34548883,34552101,34555472,34551689,34548997,34555499,34548957,34556904,34549142,34551485,34552728,34551550,34646680,34555035,34549415,34547872,34552531,34554568,34548988,34552966,34549412,34549438,34551135,34552317,34548933,34549355,34548724,34547797],"score":934,"text":"Not sure about anyone else, but I enjoy seeing the posts on side projects making money.
