Ask HN: Erlang and the telecom market

Hello folks, I was a telecommunications engineering student when I came across the Erlang language. I was seduced and it looked like a good career for me. By the description it was a niche language with a high demand on the market. But it was 3 years ago and and I still did not find an appropriate Erlang position (I applied to all of the very few offers on the internet and it was not only the telecom offers) How do one find an Erlang job? PS: screw Elixir by the way
