WWR is interesting because it has programming and devops jobs, but also customer support and miscellaneous jobs, all remote.

I’d suggest going through the list, short listing the ones that look appealing to you, and then applying the reverse order of desirability, so you get to practice on the interviews you aren’t that keen on and use them as backups or leverage if you do get through.

I’d suggest starting with something that you can do easily and that will settle you for a while, then you can prep and study for the next-level jobs if you want something more ambitious.

Specifically, I’m suggesting with the remote customer service or community manager jobs while you study and prep for the technical ones. The competition for technical jobs is pretty high right now because lots of people can work remote, and the bar is higher because you can’t receive as much on-the-job training. Maybe look for the service jobs with a technical bent of you want a leg up on your tech career path.
