Jobs

One thing I have seen hiring web3 teams struggle with the most, is job descriptions. Here are 5 tips that I recommend to my teams 🚀

✨ Benefits

One of the most significant factors that attract talent to work in this space is freedom: working from anywhere, having flexible working hours, more vacation, etc. Hence, this is a must-have section of the JD.

Humans have a relatively short attention span, and combined with the fast-paced nature of web3, it's easy to lose a candidate's interest. Make the descriptions as short as possible 📝

So what should the JD include?

❤️ Vibes

Vibes are the cornerstone of team culture in web3. In my opinion, the best JDs let their vibes/culture shine throughout the entire text through the choice of words, examples, etc.

🎯 Mission

I suggest allocating a good portion of the JD towards explaining your mission. Use this section to describe the person's impact on building toward the mission compared to directly moving on to listing the requirements (like in the web2 style JDs)

🤠 Titles

As fun as they may seem, avoid using unique titles (e.g. coding ninja). Instead try to think about what title your target candidate would enter in the search engine. Experiment with titles and compare the kind of talent you attract.

Take the applicants perspective. What do you think they value when they look for a new job? 👇

this is such good advice, really contextualizes what makes web3 unique well
