whoa.... 1k job applications? 🤯 I'd try to prove your experience w/ side projects or open source. I'd also reach out directly to companies you really love - even if there's no public opening. plus, make sure you craft your cv + letter for the particular role - nothing generic. roe.dev/ama #ama

Judged on side projects and open source sounds really nasty to me as someone who has been working from age 19 as a dev and now at 42 can't really point to an open thing to prove my experience. Luckily job market seems ok here for experienced people, just it sounds backwards to me.
