How is it possible no one wants to hire you? You seem way more competent than many devs out there and you've created a 10k stars github project among others.

The technical interviewing process. It's one of those things where it treats everyone if they're lying about their experience.

That's because everyone is. For every rockstar CV you'll get an identical one where the person can't even code a fizz buzz.

What will the ability to or not to code fizz buzz about their prior experience?

I sometimes wonder whether SDE employment is inversely proportional to how popular a person is... it’s not like employer is looking for a rock star to sit and fix issues all day long for years. The person will lose interest in two weeks and quit.

I don't get it either. Every team around me at big tech company is clamorong and desperately trying to hire SDEs. All my friends, even the self taught ones with history degrees from second tier schools, has no problem getting hired. I have trouble understanding these threads, I of course believe these people, but it's so different than my observation.

Networking.

Everyone is interviewing, no one hiring due to current fashion. If you don't have contacts inside a company, there's perhaps a 1% chance of getting hired.

The only other way in is to have "nerves of steel" and get lucky in the interview, where the random coding exercise is one you have recently practiced. They will attribute these two factors to you being a good hire, a connection that is tenuous at best.

Not adding anything productive to the convo - but love the design here. Very nice.

Big fan of dark interfaces and visual (relationship) flow-graphs like this.

I'm interested! This looks intriguing.

and how are you doing since? did the site help in future interviews?

Yeah it does help to get that first interview. Just passing the interview often times means having a good grasp on how to solve LeetCode style algorithmic problems and not necessarily how to build products.

So I am practicing that now and hopefully will pass some interview one day.

I can empathize with your problem. Was just talking to a friend an hour ago about this.

I am wondering whether you have considered companies that don't white board.[1]
