Topic: how to get mod jobs on any crypto platforms (Read 324 times)

Absolutely, doing a search for new altcoin projects would help OP in getting potential mod jobs because they would be open  to looking for work force as they are new to the system. If OP is really ready to start a good mod job and getting experience on the job, Op would need to do as you have said. Another thing is upgrading in skills like learning how to integrate bot into the telegram group just as you have said which made it easier for you. I believe OP should put that into consideration as well because all these would add up to experience and skills added to CV.

Yeah, that's just how it is, my friend. The first time I did the moderator's work, it was just my first experience with it, and I think the CEO asked if I had been experienced, which I think I said yes, where as I was not, but I just got along very well with the job, and he always commended me for doing a nice job always. The last one I got last year before I stopped this year was so demanding of me because I had to integrate some Telegram bots into the group. I had not done it before, but immediately the CEO asked me to integrate the bot on that Telegram group. I said okay, rushed to YouTube, grabbed some videos, and learned how to do it. I did it and made some mistakes, which I still fixed. For the OP, I think he can also prepare himself for such a situation.

Also, OP, I would like to add that if you want to get a moderator job like you asked, you should also look out for mostly new altcoin projects; some of them do really need moderators.

Is actually very hard to get a mod job, if not almost everybody would have become a mod, some persons get a mod work based performance by contributing and offers solution to their telegram group, I was on a group with serious discussion about a topic and a guy among us were good on that topic as such he contributed and offers solution, so immediately the manager ask him if could work for them as mod, so that's how he got the job. So sometimes to get a job as a mod you need to showcase your talent and you will noticed.

Though in most cases some projects select their mod internally before even coming public but is best for you to follow up new project which are starting new.

Get jobs from friends' introductions is one of ways to have jobs in cryptocurrency. But nothing comes without reason, you must show your friends that you are capable to handle those tasks and when chances come, he will introduce you to company and if luckily enough, you will be hired by the company.

Different social medial groups and channels require different skills of moderation and a newbie can start with one or two familiar channels like Telegram or Discord. Handling social media accounts like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram will require more knowledge and more skills. It's not easy like with Telegram and Discord.

If you can use bots to help your moderation in Telegram and Discord, better chance to be hired.

I know of some friends whose side hustles include moderating social media groups or channels. One is hired through somebody who's connected to a group who offers social media moderation. Another participated in a paid online training class. She paid tens of dollars. Right after the short course, she was immediately assigned a moderation task. She was able to refer a few friends for the same job. There are also others who went through platforms like Fiverr, Upwork, and the like.

So there a number of ways to get such jobs. You can even offer such services here on the forum. I bet there are also campaigns here which include translation and moderation.

I ever see that some bounties campaigns pay people to be modertor (or something like that) on telegram to direct the audience / their crypto fans then keep the discussion on the telegram is active and keep it stay conducive.

You can find some bounties like that here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0 after that you can apply as like you apply any bounties on this forum.

If you have had former experience on moderating, you would probably be led to the right place. The best thing you can do is study up on what interests you most about cryptocurrencies and build the knowledge, then you can put into practice the best advice you can get here.

I don't know much about moderating, but I can say that when you show more interest in the betterment of an idea, you would have unknowingly gone through an interview phase and what would be left is simply to ask. Which is what you have done.

Well except you an alien from another world then the system of hiring in the cryptocurrency world is same as how people in other aspect hire, there is no special thing here for you to know or understand that you haven't heard already.

First competency, it's only those who merit the job description that gets the job so you have to have a good competence level and if you don't you can actually go and build yourself. Then create awareness you can do that by promoting your service and hopefully it would get to your prospective employer, and very importantly having a positive attitude.

I remembered my early days as telegram moderator, these were the principles I applied  to securing my telegram moderating jobs then. I do make sure i study the white paper of the project to make sure I am always active and replying to questions from investors and members of the telegram community. One day the CEO of a particular project was asking me series of questions on the platform as an investor  whilst i had no idea he was the owner of the project i responded to him with facts and details he was marveled and he sent me a pm and there he asked if i can moderate the telegram group i agreed and  I had to start work immediately. That was how i began to gain experience and knowledge on telegram community moderating.
OP can start this way as this is how you can get the experience too and it would make you have reliable source and contact to always give you jobs in the nearest future based on recommendations.

You just need to apply when you see a company is hiring for those. You have to try it for yourself to see if you're going to be qualified or not.
The last say is still in the company's hiring process and it's not all the time the experience that you have but with the attitude that you'll show them during the interview. But it is better to have a background study and be aware of these positions before you apply so at least, you're still ready for any question related to it. Usually, these companies aren't too difficult to with these hirings especially they're urgently needed.

Twice, I worked as a Telegram moderator for two Altcoin projects. The first one was in 2021, but along the way, the project died and my work with them stopped. The second one was last year until this year, after which I just stopped working with them in the month of February this year.

The reason I got those two jobs was because of how much I knew about the project. During those years, whenever I came across any Altcoins that I liked, I would devote my time to reading through their white papers and studying the activity going on in their Telegram and Twitter accounts. For the first one, I discovered that their telegram group had no moderator and not much activity, so I became active in that group. People were asking about the project, and I was responding to them. I did that for two days. In the process, I also sent a DM to the CEO of that project, offering to take the job of a telegram moderator. It took about a week plus before he responded to me and thanked me for how helpful I had been in the group. From there, we agreed on some weekly payments, and I started working for them before the project failed along the way.

For the second project I worked on, it almost happened like the first one, but in this case, I became active in their telegram group, but the group admin became angry and warned me never to act as an admin while I was not. I picked it up from there and informed him that I have experience on how to manage a Telegram group and also how to run advertisements for projects on my social handles. He asked me how much I knew about their project, and I answered every one of his questions. He gave me the job last year, but I just decided to resign this year because my activity was too high.

Also, if you want to get that kind of job, you can send those projects an email or send DMs on Twitter, Facebook, Telegram, and Instagram. Just send a proper proposal to them through any fast link you can reach them with.

In my opinion, you should look for projects where they do not have a local community yet other than global.

For example, I am in the Philippines. I saw a project and look on their Discord chat.

After that, I check their global channels to see if there's a Philippines group chat. If there is none, that's where I can reach out to the mods and apply as a moderator for the Philippines community of that project.

Be sure that you make a strong case on why they should be hiring you as a moderator like sending them your resume, cover letter, etc.

There are many projects that are emerging from time to time, so always take time for the opportunity to check if they do not have a local community yet for their project.

The likelihood that you will be invited to work on any forum or telegram group as a moderator depends on your experience and your fame. I had to lead a large group on social networks, but for this, I had to be an ordinary user for a long time and gain some acquaintances, as well as the trust of the people who were the organizers.
I still think that to become a moderator, you need a good knowledge of the areas in which a forum or group can be set up, as well as the ability to be online regularly to be in touch with users almost 24/7.

I had similar experience where I was contacted for a moderating job on telegram. I had to send them my  portfolio.  After which, I was told by the team that they would pay in their own native token which is not professional. I had to let them know how it is been done  but I was considerate enough to accept their local token in a lesser percentage but the insist I had no option than letting it go because of my past experience with such agreement and at the entire end it didn't go down well with me as I made a huge loss. My time, my efforts, my commitment, my expertise all for that project, just like that. It really weakened me but I had no option than to move on. The experience was not worth it. So if you have any negotiation of this nature in the nearest future with any project you would know what to do and be plain with them.

In addition to this points above; i would advise that you find networking opportunities in crypto currency too. Find and Join network groups, network channels where there are other crypto currency freelancers, mods, shillers etc because there are always job placements and adverts in those network groups as well.

Make sure to have a linkedin profile as well, well optimized and also add a profile picture too.

Never send a personal invite or message to anyone who is hiring. They will give you a form to apply on and only from there your application will be viewed.
if you DM someone for a role, they will surely ignore your application for being a mess. If I was hiring someone, I wouldn't recommend anyone to personally message me regarding that.

There would be a forum post or guide available with all the FAQs and rules.

Just like another user mentioned, it may not be easy to obtain a moderation job, especially without prior professional experience. However, that doesn't mean it is impossible. To increase your chances, it is essential to build a strong portfolio that showcases your relevant past experience.

This portfolio should encompass not only our forum but also all social media platforms where moderation roles are in demand. It is crucial to present your past experience related to the job in the best possible way to effectively market yourself.

I don't think that this thread belongs to the off-topic since this is still somehow related to crpto and to our forum.

The moderators job handling community inquiry basically answer all questions regarding the project you are in for that group. So basically the skills needed for that are your communication experience in terms of language speaking either its native or english. Of course thats also included some experience on how to handle technicals on particular platform like telegram and discords. Its hard to compete with this if you dont have background for that.

Most of us suggesting to have some experience but at the beginning no one have any kind of experience. So you can try without any experience but have to aquire knowledge how it works and how to be constructive as a mod. So if you are interested to be a Mod in NFT or Altcoin or any other crypto platforms then spend your times on those kind of groups and learn about how to manage everything and be effective as a mod by observing others. That will grow your starting experience.

So now question about getting the Job. You should make a gig
or ad your job in Freelancing Platforms like Fiverr, Upwork and many more. You can get jobs from LinkedIn too so try to build e professional profile there and find clients. Send them job offers or requests and try to convince them.

Another great opportunity can be the Services board of this forum. Here you will see both clients and worker are posting about their services. You may join there. But the competition is much higher.
It would be a little bit tough to start your journey as a mod but not impossible. Wish you all the best.

I haven't good any job like this and the main reason is that I'm not that interested. But obviously, if you wanted to get a job, just like in real world you have to apply for it and have the background and have experience on the job itself.

So there are no secret strategies, you need to learn the craft. Maybe if you are that inexperience then maybe there could be some companies that are going to hire you but the salary might be small. Don't take that negatively, might be better to accept it and then start from there. Best of luck to you job hunting.
