Ask HN: As a web developer, how do you land a job?

3 points by roramigator 3y ago ↗ HN

So far, all my jobs have been from people around my environment (work, community, etc); this types of jobs, however, are not long term and I'm looking for something more stable. I have applied online for remote jobs through every site I can get my hands on, so far nothing (or scams). Does anyone have any advice?
