i applied to react native developer job at Devfied ... let see how it goes

I was laid off twice in last 8 months. Top performer. Recent one drowned me alot and exit was brutal.

Now, several recruiters ghosting application or low balling than my current salary.

one opportunity is @ final rounds

Applied to 'PlayCanvas Developer Needed' job on Upwork, client viewed my proposal but so far no response. I bid a lower hourly rate of $16 but looks like client needs cheaper than that.

i applied to enabling-systems for Junior React Native Developer role. let see how it goes.

Energy is better when I batch applications and keep mornings for deep prep.

Portfolio traffic increased after posting a short thread on performance debugging wins.

Created a checklist to verify recruiters and company careers pages before replying.

Ghosting hurts less when pipeline is diversified. I need at least three active loops.

The challenge reminded me to narrate trade-offs more clearly, not just final visuals.

I interview better when I whiteboard from requirements to constraints before solutions.

Noticing stronger response from applications where I include a one-page design rationale upfront.

Response rate is low for cold applications; referrals are likely the leverage point.
