Please describe your proposed solution.

We will develop a segmented and specialized platform to connect companies and projects with highly qualified professionals with skills and competences in blockchain, DeFi, Crypto, Web3, Smart Contracts, NFTs, Metaverse and many programming languages used in blockchain.

A powerful environment to find professionals with multiple search options and filters such as:

• Location
• Skills
• Competencies
• Industry/sector
• Language
• Job types
• Job title
• Educational institution
• Courses
• Companies

How does your proposed solution address the challenge and what benefits will this bring to the Cardano ecosystem?

We believe that a niche environment specialized in Web3 talent will bring a lot of engagement with these users and will attract companies interested in finding, hiring and relating to these people.

We observed that niche environments form large tribes that connect with the target audience and thus attract greater engagement in the use of the platform, bringing real gains and a lot of value to the entire market.

How do you intend to measure the success of your project?

Success for this project can be defined:

• Number of talents founded
• Number of profiles contacted
• Number of registered skills and competences
• Validation of feedback and platform improvements

Please describe your plans to share the outputs and results of your project?

We will give the community some sort of progress report as we go along, in the form of a monthly news release on Cardano Feed, to measure the progress of our proposal.

• We will also provide a panel to be disseminated within Cardano Feed, with the evolution of the project according to the Catalyst KPIs
• Number of hits to the website: 50,000
• Number of registered users: 5,000
• Number of profiles available: 3,000
• Number of partners companies: 50

What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability?

The team will feature a journalist, blockchain and cryptocurrency content editor, videomarker and presenter. Conceived and produced by the CardanoFeed team, the largest media specialized in Cardano coverage. We already have over 1,200+ projects registered in the Cardano Ecosystem.

What are the main goals for the project and how will you validate if your approach is feasible?

We have some main objectives for the Crypto Jobs, Blockchain Talents & Recruiting Platform project, and how we will validate if they will be achieved:

• We will list many technical professionals with high skills in the field of technology, with selection filters and qualification search.

• Professional profiles can be searched and segmented by companies and possibly hired for full-time, part-time or spot jobs.

• Crawler and Scraping of job vacancies from other job sites for technology and blockchain professionals.

Lucas Fernandes - <https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucas-fernandes-silva/>

Marketing Assistant

Founder of an Education startup in 2021 in São Paulo from an insight that our current teaching model is not aligned with the needs that the job market needs. Since then, my main purpose has become to create, share and connect experiences and knowledge with people around the world, offering new opportunities to develop the skills they will need for the professions of the future, today.

Today, my biggest motivation comes from showing that any dream is possible and that there are no limits for those who really dream big, have their feet on the ground and take one step at a time. We are certainly only at the beginning of a great journey.

How does the cost of the project represent value for money for the Cardano ecosystem?

We believe that the value of the project is very affordable to be implemented in the Cardano ecosystem community, so that they can more easily find professionals in the field of technology and blockchain.

We will offer an organized database of technical professionals from several specialist sites in one place. A powerful platform to find multiple technology professionals, with multiple filters and segmentations.

Contracting companies will be able to use the platform to hire professionals in an easier and more organized way.
