Interesting idea, but who would pay a 12% tax for writing a blog post, or leaving a review. I think it would pass the costs onto the consumers, raising the barrier of entry to information liquidity.
Edit: imo, Also don't deal with recruiters they'll plug anything/anyone for a CTO position if they can pull the commission, although I guess maybe as a way to practice interviewing.
Are there any benefits to using uvloop vs curio?
I would say if you can speak to your relevant experiences and are able to tie that into the position, most times the 2-3 years of experience or BS in CS or engineering is a soft requirement.
That being said shoot for doing 4-5 applications per day, and if an interview goes poorly, brush it off, and get ready for the next one.
I created categories, or staging points for each application in asana, and treated the job search like work. (Applied, emailed, follow up thanks, phone screen, phone interview, onsite, etc)
Depending on who is doing the hiring the process could take an hour or it could take 3wks+ if its a big organization.
Edit:
Also reframe any "problems" as challenges, and instead of making negative comments try to pull out the positive from any given situation when asked about something.
