&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hiring in the crypto world can be difficult. Web3 companies are often disorganized and lack HR departments. Developers sometimes want to remain anonymous  even to their potential employers. &lt;\/b&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Some employees dont exist at all, while others are secretly juggling three other remote gigs. Then there are those who pretend to be employees but are really just plotting to rug everyone.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The job of a hiring manager is no easy one. This goes doubly so for the Web3 world, where expectations both from employers and employees can be drastically different compared to the Web2 corporate world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Magazine spoke to Declan Strain, managing partner of Dubai-based talent consultancy <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">BlockDelta,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> which helps companies in the Web3 industry connect with workers of all levels. After 20 years as a recruiter, he became involved in the blockchain space in 2015 and set up his specialist consultancy in 2017.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A traditional recruiter wont be as successful as someone who lives and breathes this space, he says, referring to his efforts to be part of the fabric of the metaverse by attending events and making connections in person.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13073\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13073\" style=\"width: 594px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-13073\" src=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/magazine-Crypto-recruiting-is-a-minefield.jpg\" alt=\"Web3 recruiting\" width=\"594\" height=\"334\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13073\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Fake employees and remote workers youve never met are some of the issues in Web3 recruiting.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The ICO craze of 2017 saw projects being organized by small groups of developers who often lived in different countries, perhaps never meeting together. Still clearly in a gray-market industry phase, new hires could not be easily recruited via job boards but were often found online via <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> or in chat groups on <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>s like Telegram.<\/p>\n<p>There was no due diligence, so projects were often hiring the wrong staff, Strain laments, which can quickly get expensive considering the average blockchain developer earns $12,500 per month according to Dataconomy.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to more established industries, Strain describes many Web3 companies as still being particularly disorganized, without human-resource managers  let alone internal recruitment departments, which come standard for more established <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> companies of comparable size. This often stems from the fast pace of the industry, where things simply change so fast that established procedures are not put in place. Job board Indeed.com reports that there are 118% more postings for blockchain jobs compared to last year, with a larger share of these being remote when compared to the software industry <a

crosses borders seamlessly, it is important to have a trusted recruiter to do due diligence in order to keep out bad actors. What exactly does he mean by bad actors?<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pitfalls\"><\/span>Pitfalls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One situation that companies can face when hiring a candidate, according to Strain, is that they will come across a nearly perfect hire who ticks off all the boxes initially. But despite initial appearances, they are unable to verifiably back up their previous work with, for example, a strong GitHub profile in the case of a developer. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once these applicants are hired, it can take several weeks to find out that the new employee is not what they say they are, with the project being delayed due to having to restart the hiring process again. Often, the over-inflating candidate is more than happy to deal with the embarrassment of being fired because a one-month blockchain developer salary can go a long way in certain parts of the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another common pitfall for Web3 companies, where most work is done remotely, is the hiring of full-time candidates who are in reality juggling three to four jobs, which are naturally left undisclosed to the new employer. Others are more honest, explaining that they already have a job but try to convince them that they can take on a second, simultaneous full-time commitment. While there may indeed be 168 hours in a week, one is advised to stay away from such candidates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Urgently seeking <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/GAMEFI?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#GAMEFI<\/a> Devs\/CTO&#039;s and additional candidates for our network of global clients.

Such situations are especially troublesome from the perspective of trust and security around who is controlling any kind of private keys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you wanted to hire a consultancy, youd go to a consultancy, Strain stresses, explaining that such arrangements are a problem for a number of reasons, from data protection to competing deadlines where the employer may not end up getting the attention they expect. Strain describes such situations as surprisingly frequent. These are most common in Asia, but it can happen anywhere, he notes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13061\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13061\" style=\"width: 597px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-13061\" src=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/pexels-matheus-bertelli-2467506.jpg\" alt=\"Consultancy\" width=\"597\" height=\"398\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13061\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Some companies have found they recruited someone they thought was an employee but was really a frontman for an entire team.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Moving from bad to worse, there are truly malicious actors who do their work but dig deeper to try to get what they want, whatever it is. This could include infiltration by corporate spies or  worse  black-hat hackers who end up getting access to things they shouldnt have access to and initiate hacks, which can have dire consequences for a blockchain company.

This is, however, difficult because there is little evidence regarding the hackers identity, as projects often fail to obtain proper KYC of new hires in the onboarding

which Strain admits can be true.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13062\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13062\" style=\"width: 205px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img

hiring.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(The controversial practice of location-based pay is said to be related to the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">cost of living<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, and big companies, from Apple to Meta, pay employees differently even depending on where in the U.S. they live.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This has led many candidates to lie about their nationality or country of residence, including one time when a candidate appeared on video link as an Asian national with a strong accent who claimed to be from London with the name John Smith, clearly wearing a wig and fake beard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Most interviews happen via Zoom, and its an immediate red flag if a candidate does not use video. We had one candidate who point-blank refused, as he claimed he had facial reconstruction surgery the day before and was in no fit state to show his face, Strain recounts, adding that this was not the only dubious point for the person in question.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another claimed to be in Poland but sounded South African, which he explained by having moved to Poland when he was two years old. Despite this, the 25-year-old said that he had not yet learned Polish and hung up the call when questioned further.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Credible_crypto\"><\/span>Credible crypto<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The big question is: <em>Have they worked for a credible project before?<\/em> Strain says, explaining his hiring process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">He describes different classes of blockchain workers, particularly developers. Those whose past projects can be described as well-known, respectable, official, corporate and top-level are easily the most desirable employees; however, many candidates will have projects that arent exactly at the top of CoinMarketCap on their resume, he says, referring the site ranking over 20,000 cryptocurrency projects by market capitalization.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote align-center\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You want to be careful about people who have been involved with pump-and-dumps, which, unfortunately, is a large portion of applicants  it can call their integrity into question and reflect badly on your project.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This does not mean that someone needs to have worked on Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain or Polygon in order to be competitive  even projects in the top 400, which includes projects in the $50-million-market-cap range, can provide excellent experience. In many ways, the list functions like the Fortune 500 of crypto: Any high-level employee from such a company comes with a certain confidence-instilling pedigree.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13036\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13036\" style=\"width: 601px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-13036\" src=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2022-08-15-at-4.11.07-PM.jpeg\" alt=\"BlockDelta\" width=\"601\" height=\"318\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13036\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>BlockDeltas Strain, pictured attending a conference, stresses the importance for crypto-industry recruiters to intertwine themselves into the space.

Blockchain developers with three to five years of experience on major projects and with strong testimonials command north of $300,000 per year. In what he calls the mid-range, $60,000$70,000 is a starting point, and those with more experience, especially in managing a team, rake in $130,000$140,000. Those rising to the role of chief technology officer can bring in half a million dollars, while chief marketing officers make roughly half that.

The problem with this, according to him, is counterparty risk, which can amount to a breach of basic fiduciary duties on the part of the business, which would have little recourse if cheated by their anonymous worker. He laments that some teams have ignored his advice, hiring anonymous workers only to have them prove to be a significant liability.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote align-center\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You can get stuck in a situation where your community and investors are yelling at you because somethings happened, but you have no idea who you actually contracted.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When people tell me they want to be anonymous, I tell them thats nice, but this is the real world, and this is how it works, Corbett says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Shafeeq Qureshi, managing partner of London-based financial industry recruitment agency Bright Mile, which now operates in the blockchain space, agrees that challenges in crypto hiring sometimes begin with the employer. I have come across quite a few projects where the founders do not want to share their public profiles, he notes, which presents certain difficulties considering many members of the workforce are not comfortable working for anonymous bosses. Qureshi has also found many less-than-reputable companies to have created fake employee profiles on LinkedIn  something he screens for before taking on clients because both our time and credibility are at stake.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13066\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13066\" style=\"width: 598px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-13066\" src=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/pexels-kampus-production-8636626.jpg\" alt=\"Borderlessness\" width=\"598\" height=\"399\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13066\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Hiring internationally via Zoom means employees often miss out on benefits and have to report their own taxes.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Borderlessness is another remarkable factor in the blockchain industry, and that extends to the geographical distribution of the workforce.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Strain surmises that as long as a candidate is happy to work, normally, the project is happy to pay  working out payment structure is usually the main thing.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote align-center\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I dont hear companies saying that we cant hire a person from a certain country  I think thats a beautiful thing.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But it also means that it is not often possible for employers to support employees directly by way of country-specific benefits, such as medical insurance in places like the U.S., instead paying a fixed amount and leaving the employee to look after their own insurance. Luckily, there are solutions like <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Opolis<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a DAO providing insurance for freelancers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This borderlessness also means that companies do not usually report directly to the tax authorities of an employees country, which, in many cases, leaves them with additional responsibility in filing income reports correctly. I think most of them report their income to relevant authorities, Strain says, though acknowledging that not doing so may be easier than with other industries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While some projects looking for personnel believe that the recent downturn has slowed hiring and brought wages down, Strain happily points out that top candidates who lost their jobs recently from the larger heavyweight projects are getting snapped up very quickly, adding that there is still plenty of hiring going
