I’ve worked at a crypto recruitment company for 2 months now. The main thing I’m learning is that it’s reeeeallly hard for people with no web3 experience to get in right now. If you’re hiring, are you open to web2 peeps? How would they stand out beyond the obvious (being involved in communities etc)?

Even for us that used to work in web 3 is still hard to get a job because the requirements set on job boards sometimes are too much. Considering that crypto is relatively new industry for me the most important criteria should be skills and culture fit.

I find that smart people can learn new spaces/tech quickly. I mostly aim for "smartest person I can possibly find".

My teams are open to web2 people. I think the most important factor is that values are aligned and that they are willing to learn. In the Ethereum ecosystem we actively want to help onboard the next billion users, actively shutting out web2 people would be shooting ourselves in the foot.

My experience is that the bigger the web3 company, the more they recruit into web2 spaces. They become more & more corporate and similar to web2 companies, so I guess it makes sense for them. Sad for Web3 enthusiasts who thought they had an edge though XD

Candidates must showcase their capabilities by presenting their work publicly(even dummy projects), proving they're more than capable of handling the job. Meanwhile, companies should embrace talent from diverse backgrounds to stay ahead.

I am also a part of a Web3 recruitment agency and our clients would be happy to get Web2 people and onboard them into Web3. Anyone with Web2 dev tooling experience is usually involved in at least 2-3 processes with us.

i think in crypto hiring is mid-curve. am trying to hunt for a role, worked across native early stage startups, no one interested to hire young folks for junior/mid-level roles. everyone wants senior/specialist to work with them, which is very limited. You either get web2 experienced or web3 young starters
