    S3: E6 - Perseverance for the Remote Job Search

    In today's episode, I discuss an interesting video from We Work Remotely's career fair in April 2021.  The takeaways I found most interesting are  He applied to work with Automattic four times before he was hired.  (How many times do we stop at one?) He knew this was a company that had values and a mission he believed in and that helped him continue to pursue even when rejected. He doesn't know what changed between his first time applying and the fourth time.  Maybe because he gained more experience?  Maybe it was just the person reading the resume?   One of the reasons that I enjoyed this video and a topic for one of my next blogs is because it's a testament that consistently working for your goals and your dreams do pay off. Even the little failures that come along the way are still experiences for us to learn and grow.  Amazon Web Services (AWS) has multiple resources for developers and entrepreneurs to learn and improve their skill sets.  The resources are there for the taking, just need a little motivation and desire to dive in and make progress to your own dream job.
