The nascent nature of the Webย 3.0 landscape, along with the complexity of technical expertise involved in cryptocurrency and blockchain-related jobs, makes it hard for a bulkย of corporations to find the right talent. On the other hand, Webย 3.0 professionals likewise have difficulty looking for newย doors on mainstream job platforms designed mainly for Web2 careers. Even when thereย is an ideal match for a company and talent, the remote-focused work expectations of the post-pandemic era create a bottleneck for the traditional recruiter-candidate onboarding process.
Theย mostย recent participant of Cointelegraph Accelerator, the startup booster leveraging Cointelegraphโs media capabilities, Intropia is an introduction-based Webย 3.0 talent ecologicalย system that utilizes the community-centric nature of Webย 3.0 to solve the talent bottleneck threatening theย expansion of the industry. To get a clear profile of theย present Webย 3.0 talent, Intropia conducted the Webย 3.0 Talent Survey with the contribution of over 1,500 Webย 3.0 professionals. The survey showed that the Webย 3.0 ecologicalย system boasts a diverse range of talent, from coding specialists to hardcore traders, who mostly prefer remote or freelance jobs and want to use pseudonyms. The vast bulkย of the respondents (80%) are working on plentyย of projects simultaneously, having one main job and freelancing for plentyย of others.
All in all, the average Webย 3.0 talent would have a hard time filling a job appย inside the traditional business world, as a CV with โWeb3Nakamotoโ in the name section would hardly receive aย suitable review. Thatโs why Intropia focuses only on professional capabilities instead and helps Webย 3.0 talent find theย following gig accordingย to their past experience.
The introduction dynamic of Intropia turns the whole ecologicalย system of participants into potential recruiters. Webย 3.0 users can refer a friend, a colleague or someone from their network for a job opening to contribute to finding the ideal talent โ monetizing their professional network in theย procedure, by receiving a portion of the recruitment fee from the Intropia platform. This way, even if the ideal candidates miss a specific job posting, someone from their network can see it and refer them to the job, helping the Webย 3.0 talent pool grow in a sustainable way.
Professionals can create their Web3-friendly profile on Intropia and seek newย doors in a gamified environment, while Webย 3.0 projects can post detailed job descriptions to grab the attention of new talent.
Launched in early 2023, the Cointelegraph Accelerator Program utilizes Cointelegraphโs leading position in the media landscape and established worldwide audience toย assist promising Webย 3.0 corporations reach their full potential.
