Ask HN: Technical roles without technical interviews?

All of the positions have been remote (US), and I suppose a lot of them are headquartered in SF or NY. The companies I tend to apply are pre-ipo startups.

I have been rejected by FAANG, but I'm not surprised. I knew those were long-shots, I guess I'm surprised that in reality the others were long-shots too.

I kind of have a feeling that everyone who has hired me in the past feels they made the right decision, but also everyone who hasn't extended an offer feels the same way.

SF and NY are already competitive enough but remote positions make it 10x worse. If you're really insistent on remote work for a startup try to focus on Nashville, Charlotte, and Atlanta.
