Getting a second job is tough

I got into this startup right after college and have been working in it now for more than 2 years.

Now I am looking to switch to advance in my career but I am finding it hard to do that.

I have applied to countless jobs but have not gotten any response. Though, I got reached out to one startup but after doing their take-home assignment the guy reached out to me and said they are moving forward with another candidate because of the fungibility. I had experience in frontend and backend development, and the other candidate also had experience in on-chain (contract) development (It was related to web3).

I have experience working on Wallet extensions, dApps, and Telegram bots. I have majorly worked with the CosmWasm contract, adding their support to the Leap Cosmos Wallet, and adding new chain and feature support to the Leap Cosmos Wallet.

Recently, I also handled the Sei EVM support to Compass Wallet single-hand, where I added functionality for in-wallet transactions and dApp transactions.

I applied to Sei, Pyth, Backpack, and Frax but didn't get any response. I got reached out by Stella's team but that didn't work out. I also applied to organizations in Zurich, Germany, and Tokyo but had no luck there as well.

I have built many projects that you can find on my GitHub account github.com/hsnice16. I have experience working with React, TypeScript, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, Express.js, and a bit with Next.js and MongoDB. I am learning Rust these days, as I want to write a contract.



There are threee official posts the first day of each month for jobs. Try looking at it next week, or post yourelf in the correct thread.

Oh, Nice. Thanks for sharing.


Good luck.

Remember to add http:// to the links to make them clicky http://github.com/hsnice16

I notice a few in javascript, like the fliping coin one. Do you have a live demo? Perhaps you run one in github and add a link. (I don't expect that to magicaly solve your job search problem, but it may help to gain traction here if they are posted.)


That's why my links were not clickable. Thanks again.

Yeah, okay. I will do that.

Looks nice. Let me check. Thanks for sharing it.
