How to get a job in Web 3?

Date: 31 Aug 2022

Web3 is the future of business, and it's here to stay.

The industry is growing by leaps and bounds, and there's no sign that that growth is slowing down. The number of jobs available in Web3 has risen steadily since the industry began expanding in 2016, and with every passing year, it seems like more and more people are getting involved.

The same organizations that have been around for decades—the ones developing and publishing the products and services we use every day—are still there and still hiring. In fact, they've never been more important than they are right now: they're the gatekeepers of our online lives, and they're looking for people like you to help them keep things running smoothly.

So you want a job in Web3?

If so, you're not alone. The world of blockchain and cryptocurrency has exploded in popularity in recent years, and the demand for qualified professionals is skyrocketing. But how do you get started?

There are many steps to take before landing your dream job at a blockchain startup or an established crypto company, and it's important to follow each one carefully. We'll walk you through them here:

1. Build Your Portfolio

The first step is building your portfolio. You should have at least five examples of your work—if possible, with links to the projects they were part of—and they should be relevant to the kind of work you want to do in Web3. If possible, also include links to any articles or blog posts related to your work on these projects (though this isn't required).

2. Get Your Resume Ready

Your resume should emphasize experience in Web3 technologies and skills relevant to what kind of job you want (e.g., database administration or web development). Make sure it's up-to-date; if there's anything on there that isn't relevant anymore (or never was), remove it! Also, make sure everything looks good: no typos or grammatical errors.

To work as a Developer or Engineer in Web3, you must be able to code. Javascript, Python, and C++ are the most commonly used languages in Web3. It is also important to note that Smart Contracts on Ethereum are coded in Solidity and Solidity Developers are "hot cakes" in the market right now. If you don't know how to code, you'll have to learn before applying for a job.

You'll also need experience with machine learning, as this is one of the major technologies used in Web3. You'll need to be able to apply machine learning theory and techniques directly in real-world applications if you want to work in Web3.

Finally, you should have some knowledge of blockchain technology since it's such an important part of Web3.

3. Network! Network! Network!

Networking is the key to getting a job. It doesn't matter where you are in your career—you need to be meeting people and connecting with them to make sure you're on their radar when they have a position open. Meet with recruiters, attend networking events, or even just reach out through LinkedIn. The more people you meet, the more opportunities will come your way!
