If you are a "noob", barrier to entry for getting a remote job is higher. No one knows what track record you have. No one knows what are you capable of yet. No one knows if you can work remotely and learn at the same time. No one knows if you have the discipline and mental capacity to work remotely, alone.

So, you have more work to do. You need to be better than your peers who are also applying to similar jobs. You need to "Show, Don't tell".

- Build a project. Put in on Github. A real project, not some copy paste "React Template that everyone has from a bootcamp". If you cannot build one from scratch, contribute to an Open Source project that you really like

- Build a personal website and write about your learning experience. No shortcuts here. Again, how do I know who you are with all the noise ? "Show, don't tell"

- Reach out to people/companies you want to work for ideally. Be focussed and make a list. Imagine if you could work for any company. What company will that be ? Can you make a list of may be 10 ? Then reach out to their founder (if startup), hiring manager (if a bit larger company) etc. Hustle and get their information (linkedin etc).

- The more you can show, the more chances you have.
