I find that remote jobs are infinitely more competitive than local jobs when it comes to landing interviews or even getting responses.
I understand that though. When working remotely you're asking a company to take a lot more on faith, especially early in your employment with them.
Why should that be?
You can set up light process/habits to keep track of one's doing on a daily basis. Like a short sum up at the end of the day to keep track of what your fellow developers did and will do.
Been a few years working remotely, no one ever had problem with me and never had problem with anyone. Or if there was, it was detected fast.
I've worked remotely at a few jobs. I think if you can't be trusted or aren't getting your work done because of at home distractions, then it's super obvious.
Exactly.
That's not the only reason. When you're applying for a remote job you're not competing only with the local talent, but quite often with the applicants from all over the world, which of course makes landing the job more challenging.
And this totally makes sense. There is maybe 10 companies hiring in my area, but it's a small city, so there won't be thousands of developers to pick from. Make that global, and there will be 10000 companies to apply to, and that much people to compete against. It goes both ways - more people apply, but you have much more opportunities as well.
couldn't agree more! The another challenge is not all "remote" jobs are 100% remote. Either they are remote within specific country/region or remote only few days a week.
I imagine that freelance experience would go a long way.

I've applied to a few remote jobs but didn't make it past the code exam phase. Those exams are ridiculous. So far for me, it's easier to just find freelance work than waste my time studying for tests that don't test my actual ability.
How do you find your first freelance work while someone has worked for full-time through his career? Any tips?
I've gotten all my work one of two ways:
How to get freelance gigs is a huge topic not really suited for a comment but I'll try.
Getting your first legit gig is probably the hardest. For me, one of my teachers saw a work ethic in me and trusted me with a gig. Did i get paid well for that? No not really but the work kept coming after that because i followed these two rules:
I dunno if that helps, but its how ive survived in one of the most expensive cities in the country :)

⭐️ Companies that don't have a broken hiring process
Hiring Without Whiteboards
A list of companies (or teams) that don't do "whiteboard" interviews. "Whiteboards" is used as a metaphor, and is a symbol for the kinds of CS trivia questions that are associated with bad interview practices. Whiteboards are not bad – CS trivia questions are. Using sites like HackerRank/LeetCode probably fall into a similar category.
The companies and teams listed here use interview techniques and questions that resemble day-to-day work. For example, pairing on a real world problem or a paid/unpaid take home exercise. Read (and contribute to) our recommendations for ways to conduct better interviews.
