My problem is I live in a small town that's really only residential and fast food - no real industry or large companies here. While I love public transit my transportation beyond that is limited (no car) -- which is why I wish I could get hired in SF, I can easily make it to that tech center. I have looked at the Who's Hiring post, but I wish I could find more companies interested in Coffeescript/JS or Lua that are willing to help with relocation - even remote work.
I have had friends look over my CV, and that was amusing - I had a section that essentially read like "He enjoys long walks on the beach and talking about American Idol". I was trying to sound more like a human than a machine. A friend rightly informed me that this sort of personality information would be best disclosed at an interview. After that I added a bit to my 'Experience' section - work that I had done for friends while acting as a system administrator. I get a little upset when I have friends who are more qualified in security fields and they get hired very easy - it seems like their resumes aren't formatted as nicely. Qualifications really do speak for themselves.
I think I'm just upset when listening to grandparents talk about how 'back in their day' they could easily go find an apprenticeship. I wish I could find the same for webdev, frontend work. I usually go to DEFCON each year if I can save for it, but I haven't had as much luck networking at that. I think most people show up to DEFCON to drink, really.. (not a bad thing)
Anyway, thank you for your kind advice, sir - I will adjust my search <3
