Well done mate, you're an inspiration. In a few years you'll get that FAANG job if you want it, finger crossed.
The problem for me in getting a local job, is I have to go back home (I'm from a poor African country, there are no jobs there and if there are the pay is "shit"). I live in France right now, they are not so so keen on the remote thing, plus the fact that they still really care about degrees, mine is in business. What hires the most, back or front end? I'm leaning more toward back end stuff as I find it more fun, but I would change if it affects my chance of getting a job.
What's your background by the way? STEM or completely unrelated? How hard is it for them to hire a contractor? Does it involve a lot of paperwork? An on my side, what do I have to do? How about part-time jobs?
PS: Shoot me an e-mail, I'd like to stay in contact with you if that's ok.
