The day has come! 🫣 For a while, I’ve been looking at the wonderful Bitcoin community, shyly, from the sidelines, supporting people and what they do for Bitcoin. I thought I had nothing to say, or share with the world. Then I realized, as a recruiter, that I had spent a fine amount of time daily, talking to job seekers about how they could improve their chances of landing their first Bitcoin-only job, or with the managers, how they could improve their recruiting. So it hit me- I have a lot to share, and I should write it down! Today, I humbly present you my two ebooks. One is for job seekers in the Bitcoin industry, and another one is for start-ups on how to improve, or build from the ground up, their hiring processes. I do this for the Bitcoin community, with the hope that we can create a common ground for job seekers and companies to better understand each other. For that reason, these guides are completely free, and no data will be collected. I want to thank the people who supported me during this project: @Marce for her marketing magic, and for being an awesome friend @doe for patiently listening to our ideas and for creating this Barbie Bitcoin vibe website @5c508c34 for his designs and for not giving up on us after realizing how many messages per minute we can send in the group chat @FOX last but not least, Martell, for her amazing support and professional advices Go to: https://www.thunder.wtf/ I put a lot of love into these guides, so hopefully, you’ll find value in them 💜

No no, thank You Sladjana, because this is something very needed IMO, and will help many bitcoiner to achieve their goal of being payed for something they love to do and that resonates with their vision and ideals. 🍀🫂💜

It’s the comments like this that pushed me to do it. I really, really, believe we should address some topics openly and try helping people get into the industry. All of the noise, rumors, and whispers and people are so confused. 🫂💜

two beautifully made and free* ebooks in this post: - one for ppl seeking a bitcoin job - one for ppl looking for tips on hiring *also no data collection, just a free download nostr:nevent1qqsg9lvc39m47adl977szr0j2yaxpttmcj74hnc5puetwh0devtr0vcpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgq3qdhvlm7aumyhy60mlv3lemk4newny4uwkdc9ahcskk4lvatytq4vqxpqqqqqqz6kdejm

C4 makes you think it is, to sell their certificate (even if the price is quite reasonnable I must admit). Would be also curious to see if any serious Bitcoin startup consider it as a real plus vs proven experience like: Bitcoin full node and Lighning node runner, Multisign experience, Bitcoin core CLI experience...

Thank you for downloading! Good question- I am, generally speaking a fan of certificates, it means one is learning & developing. I mentioned somewhere in the guide, you could find any relatable certificates and conduct it. Now, the industry is filled with different certificates and my thoughts are mixed when it comes to it- what would give you a real learning value and what won’t? However, from a professional perspective, I don’t think it would push your application to the top. It is, at the end of the day, a learning experience not a job requirement. As Eluc mentioned, there are more important things. Let’s say you aren’t technical (I’m not!)- your overall contribution to the space is more important than a piece of paper saying you are educated on the topic. There are a lot of free learning resources online that will not give you a certificate- does it mean you are not educated if there is no paper to prove it?

I've been in this industry for quite a while on every side of the conversation (hiring manager, looking for a job, founder etc) and I've never heard of C4 CBP. Certificates are generally mostly useless at proving anything besides ability to sit down for a number of hours and memorize enough material to pass. Hard won experience learned though running nodes, testing software and building something yourself will be 10000x valuable on a resume than this.
