I recently found a good recruiter that actually gets me, and I am so bloody grateful. It has been life changing. I have been trying to break out of contracting for sometime. The job application process is hell for me. I applied for so many jobs that I knew I would hate, I had this notion that I was gonna have to suffer a terrible employer for a while. Then I found a perfect position and managed to get the attention of the recruiter. He's a real human, he knows his shit and most importantly he just got me immediately. Now I'm on the cusp of breaking out of contracting AND the front end, into an amazing full stack position with an awesome company. Good things can happen to quietly competent people! You do have to put yourself out there, which can be difficult. It helps if you have some interesting projects in your back pocket. I reversed engineered a car share app and reimplemented it as a web app. Fortunately they thought that was cool. If anybody out there is struggling through a similar situation, hang in there and be kind to yourself. Feel free to reach out if you wanna talk it through.
