Last year, TheStreet interviewed our CEO Zhanna Manzyk together with Dominic Rohde for a story by Vedang Vatsa, “Recruiters say Web3 execs lose remote edge to developers.”
Read the article: https://www.thestreet.com/crypto/innovation/recruiters-say-web3-execs-lose-remote-edge-to-developers
TheStreet is a leading digital financial media company covering markets, stocks, earnings, personal finance, the economy and business news, and it regularly interviews major CEOs, hedge fund managers and market leaders.
What we said then: Web3 hiring was moving away from the remote first era. Remote job postings had dropped by around 30%, and hybrid became the new sweet spot, usually 3 to 4 days in the office. Companies wanted verifiable people, stronger proof of work, and senior operators who can connect technology, product, regulation and business outcomes. AI skills were becoming a baseline expectation. The hidden opportunity was in operations, strategy and legal roles, where pay stayed strong and competition was much lower.
What changed in one year: the market became even more selective. The average job now draws around 244 applications, and a hot remote role can pass 1,000-4000 applications in the first week. Only about 2% of applicants reach an interview. Cold applications work less, referrals and visible proof of work matter more, and weak LinkedIn profiles get filtered out fast. Companies still pay for senior talent, but they ask for numbers, outcomes and clear business impact. Dubai, Singapore and other hubs matter more now because access to teams, founders and decision makers has become part of the advantage.

Mark Cuban's advice for young people boils down to "there's gonna be two types of companies: those who are great at AI and those who have gone out of business."
"And then there's two types of people in how they use AI: those who use AI to learn anything, and those who use AI so they don't have to learn anything."
"And if you're one of those people who uses AI so that you can learn anything, and you realize what type of companies and problems aren't being solved by AI, don't be shy to just talk to your AI."
"And I say this not just to kids, but to 50 60, 70-year-old entrepreneurs. The biggest challenge right now with entrepreneurs using AI is the comfort level of talking to your AI... there's still a lot of hesitancy."
"Just like back in the day, those first spreadsheets, people still had their 10-key adding machine, and they would check it to make sure the spreadsheets were right."
"So when you ask me, is there one thing I truly believe, it's everything. Everything will change. This is the greatest transitional technology we have ever seen, and I've been around for all of them, right? This blows them all away."

recently we ran a little initiative for our community ✨
for each person, our team made a free Personal Salary Report + a salary negotiation document, based on their CV + location
our community is so global 🥰🌍 just 50 reports and already 24 countries, crazyyy 😭
this is how we build loyalty. we give first, always
inside every report:
🎯 your target salary
🚪 your walk-away floor, a monthly figure for global remote work
📍 where you stand
🔍 what is holding your number down
💸 your pay, decoded
🔢 three scenarios, three numbers
🗣 your negotiation plan
📅 your 90-day plan
p.s. Prepared by Jaya Talent, Dubai. Market figures from published salary data and live hiring ranges on our desk: real offers and real candidates in our database (375k candidates, 750+ people placed globally at tier-1 and tier-2 projects). Your personal figures come only from your own CV and messages. Placements through Jaya Talent are always free for job seekers, we charge clients, never candidates.
