bitJob — the Student Marketplace!

With bitJob’s official Contribution Period beginning on September 12th and the dream of a global, decentralized marketplace for student employment inching ever closer to reality, now is an excellent time to take a moment to discuss bitJob’s everyday functionality for its users. Students from all over the world will be able to engage with the bitJob student ecosystem to find work and access exclusive perks, deals, and opportunities to benefit the student experience.

So what kind of jobs can students expect to find on the bitJob marketplace? Here are just a few examples…

Social Media Manager

An essential marketing tool for startups and major international players alike, social media managers are in high demand all over the world. Why not take that talent for Snapchat and Twitter and make some extra cash by organizing and managing the social media for a company?

Tutor

One thing students have in abundance is specific knowledge about important subjects. Luckily, fellow students (of collegiate level and below) often need a little help brushing up on the details to succeed. And it’s not just subjects like math and science that people need help with. English, history, even music and art are commonly sought tutorial subjects.

Designer

Many companies around the world need help with their logos, pitch decks, branding, and visual messaging, but very few can afford the cost of an expensive creative agency to provide the content for them. Art students and design specialists can earn well while honing their craft as a future art director or brand developer.

Data Entry

It may not be the most exciting work, but data entry is a necessary task and can be relied upon for consistent income — something that every student would love to have!

SEO Optimization

If something happens on the internet, but you can’t find it on Google, did it ever really happen in the first place? This generation of students are digital natives, so why not use that innate technological savvy to help clients get the most out of their web presence?

Virtual Assistant

Reliable communicators and problem-solvers are a good fit for Virtual Assistant jobs, for which the daily routine may include a wide array of tasks. VA jobs are a perfect opportunity for students to get a look inside how startups and companies work, while getting experience with multiple aspects of an enterprise.

Transcriber/Translator

We live in a global world, and those who can speak more than one language are perfectly situation to user their knowledge to translate documents — legal, editorial, presentations, b2b, etc — in every industry conceivable.

Blogger

Blogs are the backbone of the internet and the most relied on method for editorial communication in the world. A well-run blog is a powerful marketing tool, and managing and writing content can provide a steady income while offering an opportunity to become an expert on a particular subject and improving communication skills.

Web Design

Web design is second nature to many young people, but a very valuable skill and an essential task for e-commerce. Students can earn while building a portfolio of work. Often, the hardest part is building a body of work, and part-time gigs like web design are an ideal opportunity to prepare for the next level.

App Tester

If you’re gonna spend all of your time on your phone anyway, you might as well make some money while doing it! Apps of all kind — desktop, mobile, dApp — require a team of individuals who will use the app, looking for bugs and mistakes, to make sure the project is on track. And it’s a great way to get hands-on experience with the tech word.

Blockchain Developer

If you’re a student reading this, you probably already know that the next generation revolution in technology is the blockchain. Thanks to our partnerships with prestigious universities around the world and major blockchain development institutions, the bitJob marketplace will be an industry leader for opportunities in a decentralized world.

With the world globalizing, democratizing, and changing at a rapid pace, we’re sure that many of the jobs that will populate the bitJob marketplace in the future don’t even exist yet! But when they do, bitJob will be first in providing equal opportunities to students all over the world to gain experience and earn income from them.
