    What's up, everyone? After eight awesome years as a Python developer, I'm taking the plunge into the blockchain world – super stoked! My goal is to land a blockchain developer gig with an international company, but figuring out where to focus my job search is kinda overwhelming.

    For those of you working with blockchain tech globally, where are you seeing the most active hiring right now? Is it places like Switzerland, Singapore, or are remote positions in the US or Germany the way to go?

    Skill-wise, I'm diving deep into Solidity and Ethereum, but what other tech skills are must-haves for international blockchain employers? Do those blockchain certifications (like from Blockchain Council or AWS) actually carry weight, or is it all about showing off killer projects? Also, should I be prioritizing learning Rust or Golang right now, or can that wait?

    My GitHub is currently all about my Python projects. How do I evolve it to showcase my blockchain skills without looking like I'm just chasing the latest trend? And where are the best online communities or recruiters for finding international blockchain opportunities? LinkedIn hasn't been my jam lately.

    If anyone's made a similar jump or is working in blockchain, I'd love to learn from your experience Even a tiny little tip could save me.

    Appreciate any help – this whole thing feels like a total maze, but I'm determined to figure it out! Cheers!

    Focus on regions like the United States, Singapore, Switzerland, and Dubai for blockchain developer jobs. These locations lead in demand for blockchain talent. Use your Python experience to learn tools like Web3.py and Brownie.

    Earn certifications like Certified Blockchain Developer (CBD) or complete courses from ConsenSys Academy. Build a portfolio with DApps and contribute to open-source projects on GitHub. These steps show your skills and help recruiters identify you.

    Join communities like artofblockchain.club and LinkedIn groups. Attend blockchain events such as ETHGlobal to connect with hiring managers and industry experts. Let me know if you need additional resources!

    If you’re a Python developer aiming to transition into blockchain and explore global opportunities, focus on regions with high blockchain demand like the USA, Germany, and Singapore. Build your profile by working on Python-integrated blockchain projects, such as DeFi applications or supply chain solutions, to showcase practical skills.

    Create a strong portfolio by documenting projects with detailed case studies. Even small-scale or self-initiated projects can highlight your problem-solving abilities. Use LinkedIn to build your personal brand—share posts about your blockchain learning journey, project insights, and industry trends to engage with professionals.

    Join blockchain-focused communities on Slack, Discord, and local meetups to connect with others in the field. Networking plays a key role in finding international opportunities, so actively participate in forums and discussions.
