I'm also a homebody and rarely go out with friends, and perhaps this is contributing to my inability with reading social cues at interviews as well.
Could all this remote work from the past be making a lot of people like myself rough around the edges in personality fit and why I'm failing interviews since 2020? Because, when the pandemic started (and the number of remote jobs went up) I have not been employed at all. It feels like I have been "pushed out" as a flood of new remote workers rushed in and no longer do I stand out as much.
I'd especially like to hear from people who were working remote before the pandemic. Because I'm starting to suspect that I'm focusing on the wrong things to improve my chances of getting an offer.
Human social interaction is a critical part of developing as a person. Eschewing it to stay at home all the time can't be good IMHO.
