Ask HN: Senior full-stack developer can't get a job

I'm mostly looking at remote jobs (There aren't a lot of openings at the smaller companies I'm applying to in Pittsburgh but of those I mostly haven't even gotten past the resume screen). I told them I was shooting for $120k/year although I was flexible. I've probably submitted 50ish applications so far.

$120k sounds way too high for remote, that's almost CTO level.

My apologies, I'm in Pittsburgh in the USA and currently making 90k just for front-end work. According to the research I've done, 120k is on the low end for senior devs across the nation and perhaps just right, maybe a tad high for my local area.

Try half that salary for jobs in Australia and you might have more luck.
