The web3 enabled internet will give you quests, adventures and courses to prove your worthYou'll learn and earn on-chain credentials
You’ll use your credentials to prove who you are, what your skills are and what people say about you
You can't hide from the blockchain ;)
How it will work:
- You apply for a job
- It scans the blockchain and rates your set of on chain experiences and credentials
- If above a certain rating, you’re hired within 60 seconds
No prejudice, no wasted time, no pain
This, to put it mildly, is simplifying the affair a bit. Whoever endures a lot of "quests, adventures and courses" on the internet in front of their computers may be a good candidate for e-sports or online gambling. Any person who has a moderately engaging life in the real world or is aged > 40 will, in this discipline, be put in by an army of nimble kids, otakus and net junkies. The idea that we can and should replace real-world interactions with "the cyber" and that this is a good idea for everyone is bonkers, yet—like "the blockchain" and the "OMG digitalization OMG must optimize this process quick OMG these people still work manually just think of the children OMG digitize digitize OMG the gainz OMG" meme—draws people in with its sweet smell like a rotting apple draws in fruit flies.
The other big thing here is of course that yeah, ok, once I have a number of credentials in my favor (on the blockchain whatever doesn't matter really) then it's a simple matter of 60 seconds to just look whether my rating is above a certain threshold and boom!—hired you are. If that's the case, if hiring someone is just about mechanically checking the boxes and do a sum over a few numbers, why should it take all of 60s to hire me? I want that job now you see, means now! I think the truth is rather that (1) you have to check and weigh different skillset combos against whatever you surmise might be advantageous for a given position, which is in itself difficult to get right, and then (2) square that with an assessment how a myriad of other factors might play out. I don't think it's a solved problem; I think there's a huge interest on the side of big-corporate employers to "optimize" the process (i.e. throw a computer at the wall and hope it sticks), not least to reduce costs in the HR dep. There's an incentive for the hoi polloi to buy into this, too, and since we now know how wide a base there is for believing in flat earth and injecting bleach, why not this?
