Oh same on the interviewing with tech companies remotely. After you've built things that are really badass, it's REALLY hard to be upset about a rejection, and the interviews can be really fun problems, so it's just fun. It's more about the impression they get from you in five or six 45-minute slots. It's just a numbers game if you're getting that far, so just keep at it right? Take notes, improve, watch some Coursera courses, do some silly coding exercises - basically what we all do for fun anyway. Glad you could find work on social issues though; I know what you mean about the cynicism, but I think I've gotten around that - I realized it came on with bad programs with lots of waste or highly political teams/programs, so I just avoid those. It was a long road to get there though... :)
