This is a wonderful idea, but the first listing I clicked claimed being anon-friendly while also asking for a mandatory resume.

I assumed these would mostly be merit-based positions, how do these two concepts harmonize? I have gotten anon roles before and they did not require a resume.

Also, it would be useful to filter by part-time/full-time/contract positions.

This is awesome. I would be much more comfortable working on my political side projects if employment was pseudonymous.

Thank you! Yeah I think pseudonymous work is really liberating in that sense. It could allow people to be more authentic, without worrying about their livelihoods being put at risk.

Aren't employers in most jurisdictions required to verify work eligibility and report income?

Does "pseudonymously" just mean that they these employers commit to supporting your alternative identity when engaging with the public, the way publishers might handle a pen name?

Or is this something different?

I'm probably not the only person who will wonder about this, so it might help to put the answer as text on the site. (Maybe it's explained in the video, but a 30 minute video is a big ask)

>using your legal identity at work is unnecessary, and puts your safety, security, and privacy, at risk.

It is?

I want this?

I tried watching a bit of the video but it kinda lost me with the bitcoin stuff as I don't really think of bitcoin and my relationship with my employer ... have anything to do with each other.
