Title: I&#x27;ve been self-employed for the last 5 years. I created several SaaS apps that have collectively made $1.5M pretax during that time. I also have a semi-popular open source project, prior experience moving from a senior role into a management, and have kept my skills current learning things like Sass, Bootstrap, Angular and Flask.<p>I don&#x27;t necessarily need a job right now, but I wouldn&#x27;t mind taking one because my income is 100% passive. However, I haven&#x27;t been getting any e-mails back.<p>What I remember about applying in the past was how easy it was to get an e-mail requesting a phone interview. Probably 1 out of every 3 jobs I applied for would yield one. Over the last week, I&#x27;ve applied to 25 jobs and only one yielded a phone screen.<p>Am I out of the loop already? Is my experience that much of a commodity nowadays? What does it take to differentiate yourself in 2017?
