While simple and minimalistic resumes are usually advised for typical software developer jobs, when we talk about Web3, we talk about newness, freshness, and creativity. Your resume should reflect these qualities. Show that you're an original person who likes to think outside the box. Also, the following sections shouldn't be missing from your Web3 resume:
- Profile- Often left out but an essential part of the resume. This is your chance to make the best first impression and the chance to tell your future employer who you are.
- Work experience- Conventionally, this section comes first after the profile. Always include a brief description of your past responsibilities. Focus on what you've achieved. Use active language and specific numbers.
- Education-While a good education will add value to your resume, it's not the most important section on your CV. If you're aiming for a Web3 position, place the education towards the end of your resume. Work experience, portfolio, and skills should come first.
- Skills- The most crucial part of your Web3 resume. List relevant skills — for instance, if you're a developer, this will be the coding languages you're familiar with. And, of course, blockchain skills.
- Certificates and courses- Show that you've attended certification courses and learned about Web3.
- Portfolio link- The portfolio is a vital part of your job application if you're a developer.
Final tip: When you list skills on your resume, it's always great to include quantifiable data. Be specific and demonstrate an ability to translate your skills into numbers. Here, charts come into picture (and look good).
