I wonder if the remote work could be part of it. I have the impression many companies have grown weary of remote work since the pandemic.

That being said, I have a similar profile to you and I've been getting nearly no messages from recruiters even if I'm open to on-site work. The market's just difficult right now, keep looking!

Best of luck I hope you find a new opportunity soon.
