Social3 | Web 3 Hiring Platform (01:18)

Sneha Mishra, a grantee, shared a presentation on Social3, the first web3 social hiring platform. The platform is built on Lens Protocol and utilizes The Graph for their internal badge systems.

The platform allows users to customize their profile, share employment experiences, apply for jobs, refer others for jobs (and get a referral fee as a reward) and cultivate a resume of badges.

IndexerDAO (14:15)

A new DAO has entered The Graph ecosystem! IndexerDAO was announced at the community talk and was founded by members of The Graph community.

Pillars of IndexerDAO

  1. Education

IndexerDAO plans to be a resource for all questions related to Indexing. They also hope to bring a form of certification to Indexing that will act as a badge of trust for the community.

  1. Research & Development

IndexerDAO plans to be a resource for developers by performing Indexer infrastructure tests when developers request it. Developers looking to push the boundaries on Indexing sometimes don’t receive as much feedback as the would like. IndexerDAO aims to fix this by implementing new innovations put forth by developers and providing the necessary feedback.

Lastly, IndexerDAO will set up an official Q&A community for Indexers so their questions aren’t overlooked or lost in the crowd.
