How can I apply for Web3 jobs as a fresher after building a few DApps?
I've built a few DApps like crowdfunding, NFT minter, and basic token contracts using Solidity, Hardhat, and Web3.js. I've deployed them to testnets and also connected them with simple frontends.
Even though platforms like web3jobs.com, cryptojobs, and remote3.co exist, I'm still unsure about:
How to stand out as a fresher with no prior work experience?
What are recruiters really looking for in junior or entry-level smart contract/DApp developers?
Should I focus more on open-source contributions, bug bounties, or just keep building projects?
How important is having a portfolio website or blog?
Any tips for cold outreach or LinkedIn strategies?
If you’re someone who landed their first job in Web3 or hired juniors, I’d love your advice on what actually works in this space.
