Thank you all, for your replies, are really helpful and at the same time depressing lol. I also feel that the interview processes are broken. I once took and interview where I had a week to develop a real life app with the tech of my preference, and then a second interview to explain it and go through it. This approach felt more natural and the interviewers could actually see how a person works. Having to code in a strange setup with interviewers watching you or a big clock going down it’s really stressful and I failed when I had to do it. I guess we could “hack” the process practicing exercises constantly to be in touch with the language, but it’s really discouraging.
I like the idea of trying to make contact with people around me like @D4no0 said, but finding Elixir developers it’s not so easy here in Argentina, will try though.
And also I keep thinking how to level up my game professionally. If taking a more broad path about software engineering/design/architecture or trying to dive deep on advanced Elixir topics, but that is diverging for my original question.
