What is the best way to start using KRAFT?
Start with one target role, compare the daily work, then choose a portfolio brief that produces evidence for that role. KRAFT is a career learning centre, not a course platform.
RolesDo I need to code to work in Web3?
+
Do I need to code to work in Web3?
No. KRAFT includes no-code, hybrid, and technical roles. Community, content, operations, governance, education, grants, BD, and design paths can be realistic without smart-contract development.
RolesHow do I choose between similar roles?

How do I choose between similar roles?
Compare the actual outputs. A Community Manager owns programming and reporting; a Social Media Manager owns publishing systems; an Ambassador Manager owns contributor quality and rewards.
PortfolioHow many portfolio projects do I need?

How many portfolio projects do I need?
Two or three strong role-relevant artifacts are usually better than many generic samples. Each should show context, final output, decisions, limitations, and links.

+
Can I build proof-of-work without private company data?
Yes. Use public sources, realistic assumptions, protocol docs, governance forums, public dashboards, and clearly labeled mock scenarios. Do not include private data or wallet secrets.
ApplicationsShould I use an ATS-safe CV or a creative CV?
+
Should I use an ATS-safe CV or a creative CV?
Use an ATS-safe version for portals and a separate visual version for networking when useful. Avoid tables, text boxes, and columns for ATS submissions.
ApplicationsShould I apply cold or do outreach first?
+
Should I apply cold or do outreach first?
Use both, but make each application specific. A concise message with one relevant proof link usually beats generic outreach or high-volume applications.
CompensationWhy does KRAFT avoid universal salary ranges?
+
Why does KRAFT avoid universal salary ranges?
Web3 compensation depends on role, seniority, market, employment type, funding, tokens, and region. KRAFT only shows structured evidence with source, date, market, employment type, and confidence when available.
CompensationAre token grants the same as salary?
+
Are token grants the same as salary?
No. Separate cash, token grants, vesting, lockups, liquidity, taxes, and payment timing. Do not treat speculative token value as guaranteed salary.
SafetyHow do I judge a trial task?
+
How do I judge a trial task?
Confirm scope, expected time, ownership, payment, and evaluation criteria before starting. A short paid or time-boxed task is different from a full unpaid campaign or product plan.
SafetyWhat are common hiring red flags?
+
What are common hiring red flags?
Do not pay to apply, share a seed phrase, approve wallet transactions, install unknown files, or continue with recruiters who cannot verify company domains and official channels.
LearningHow should I stay current without doom-scrolling?
+
How should I stay current without doom-scrolling?
Follow role-specific sources. Researchers need primary sources and data; community operators need governance and channel context; builders need docs, repos, and issue trackers.
Start with a real role.
The fastest way to make Web3 less vague is to inspect the work behind a title.
