Not strictly FAANG related. How do I get my resume past HR or even noticed a little bit? I'm self taught, from a third world country. In the US knowing HTML/CSS/JS Framework gets you a job, so its not skill that holds me down. I'm working on my portfolio right now to make it more professionnal, but apart fom that? Any input would be appreciated. What would you suggest if I'm looking for a US/EU job?

Are you looking for positions in US/EU? OR are you looking to work at US/EU companies where you live now?

The main barrier would be the work sponsorship. If you've coding background it's likely that it'll be easier to get interviews than you think.

What is your current recruiting process like now? How are you applying to jobs and reaching out to recruiters?

I've talked a bit about this in other posts (https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/vfzejn/comment/icysbk...)

I'm looking to work for a US/EU company, from where I live. I'll take a look at the reddit thread, thanks. For now, I target small companies from AngelList + the who is hiring thread from HN. What do you mean by coding background?
