Ask HN: Why do companies not want to hire me? https://ift.tt/EG274PT I have an atypical engineering background (worked at an agency, ended up leaving agency, leaving for a different job, but then the client reached out to me directly and I've been working with them direct for over 3 years, total working with them over 8. I'm applying to frontend but can do backend jobs as well. Whenever I send my resume, I share my credentials and high profile projects I've worked on. I've worked with many big fortune500 names, but whenever I apply for frontend jobs it seems like they just don't care and I haven't gotten a single response to over 10+ applications and different variations of resume. I feel I'm missing something fundamental because I've had such a great relationship with this client, I've been told I'm an extremely unique and valued developer, but again I just don't get past sending in my resume and getting rejection emails. I can work through and solve leetcode challenges without memorizing, I've started a few failed small businesses. What am I doing wrong? 6
