When I was preparing to launch nostr:nprofile1qqsqjmqta2kqfty89f5txggxhlkxyx8w8yuxl8n4pkh0h773rzfst2spz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7nkpzsu, one of the main ideas was to create a simple way to share #Bitcoin job opportunities seamlessly within everyday conversations on #nostr.

While having a dedicated Telegram channel or a job feed on a website is great, having it on nostr offers a unique and engaging experience.

I am especially happy when it manifests and provides that expected value.

P.S.I hope you don't mind nostr:nprofile1qqst32wlsgvqsnjfpkygxs4f6jyt0nc0kg935xdevwlv668dd26uh0gpzemhxue69uhkummnw3ezuumvda6xs7fwwa5kuqgkwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejqz8thwden5te0dehhxarj94c82c3wwajkcmr0wfjx2u3wdejhg3qrxjx and nostr:nprofile1qqsz7543nls5prmfac8fp8kcljkp8rzlxuxqth3y7rvrwzk6096jxgcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09usplzwa for sharing your little conversation in a thread.

This is how you find a job in #Bitcoin:

1. Build a strong #proofofwork

2. Connect with other Bitcoiners, grow your network every day

3. MAKE SURE TO TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW what you're looking for (most people miss this part) so you are TOP OF MIND for them, when they come across opportunities for you (like in this case, where at least two people forwarded a job listing to Tanja).

4. Be a good person. Be helpful, supportive, kind and likeable. This will make people WANT to help you, too.

If you are currently looking for a job - how many people in your network know that?

How many people have you told today?

People can't read minds.

Tell your friends. Tell your Bitcoin network. (Post it in a comment under this post.) Tell your haidresser, your gym buddy, the person at the checkout in the super market 😉 You never know who knows whom. You never know which social media feeds they follow.

They might all be subscribed to the nostr:npub1p9kqh64vqjkgw2ngkvssd0lvvgvwuwfcd7082rdwl0aazxynqk4qvutzlw ;) And if you follow the above steps 1-4 they might just remember you when they see an opportunity that might be of interest to you.

And if you don't have enough supportive Bitcoiner friends, we've got a bunch of them for your in the POW Lab ;) http://btcjobs.bitvocation.com/powlab Join us!

Point #3 really hits home. As a lifelong developer of 40+ years(Gawd that dates me) I understand that as a personality type we don't often like to talk about ourselves. We come from a "proof is in my work" I don't have to tell people point of view. However, telling people you what you can do for them is important since it helps you formulate in your own mind what you can offer and is critical to enabling others to help you as well.

Absolutely! I was exactly like that in my "past life" in the corporate world. And often I witnessed others - less qualified people - get the jobs I wanted. The difference? They were louder than me 😄 and more extroverted. Once I understood that, I made sure my boss and other decision makers knew about my career plans. They turned out to be super supportive and helped me manifest it. Since then, I've always made sure to let others know what I'm up to, what I'm building, what I'm looking for. Not in a salesy way. But I make sure I don't forget to mention it in conversations. Most people love to help (especially in Bitcoin!!) and connecting someone with a job, a new client or just a helpful contact tends to bring people joy 😊
