How To Get a Remote Blockchain Job
Top 5 Tips for Landing Remote Blockchain Jobs
Gain some experience
Remote work requires a greater degree of trust between employer and employee and therefore many employers prefer not to hire entry-level individuals for remote working jobs. Consider getting some experience in-house first to prove that you are reliable.
Become a thought leader
As a remote worker, or freelancer, you need to continuously market yourself. One of the easiest ways to do this is to become a “thought leader” and share your thoughts on the crypto and blockchain landscape through platforms such as social media or a blog. Don’t forget to also attend blockchain job fairs and expos and share your thoughts there too.
Prove your skill set
Accreditations are a great way to prove your skill set and will help you stand out from the crowd.
Don’t self reject
Some job descriptions may seem way out of your skillset, but chances are that the company is just trying to cover their backs. Don’t self reject yourself by not applying, apply anyway, demonstrate the skills you do have and you may be surprised.
Set up job alerts
New remote blockchain jobs are being posted all the time so make sure you don’t miss them by setting up job alerts to notify you.
Who Is Remote Programming Best Suited For?
