> Most of my roles have been through recommendations which short-circuited the typical tech interviews or was I hired by non-technical people who only cared about the output, so I have been fortunate in that regard.
If you realize that this approach leads to success, why are you trying to do things differently?
When you know of a path that leads to success, and you decide to not travel that path, you shouldn't be surprised when you find yourself on a path that doesn't lead to success.
You already know which path does. Talk to your therapist and try to figure out why you're choosing to not take that path.
- throwaway0129u4 4y agoThank you for responding. Honestly, the reason is that I have no idea how I ended up in those places or why those people thought I could do the work. It's a place I have been exploring by speaking to old bosses, but ultimately I do not really know how to target a search towards people like that. One of the reasons I'm working on these side projects is to try to show to others who I am as a way of marketing myself to those kinds of people.
