Hey all, would appreciate a post boost on this one.
I, unfortunately, got laid off last week and am looking for a new job!
If you know of any going that fits my skillset of video content creation, educational CG writing, CG generalist then I'd love to hear about it! I'd love to stay working remotely, but I'm located in Scotland near Glasgow if there is anything around there too.
FWIW, boosted.
@blenderbrit Heads up: there is a tool called @flockingbird that can help find jobs or express your interest in finding a job on Mastodon. Details in my earlier post here: https://aus.social/@ajsadauskas/109719069603063996
You can find the website here: https://search.flockingbird.social/
And add yourself using the hashtags jobs and getfedihired.
Looking for a new job, or want to hire someone? Sick of the toxic culture on LinkedIn and other job boards? Want an alternative that integrates with Mastodon? It's time to check out Flockingbird! How it works is that Flockingbird (@[email protected] ) scans the Fediverse for posts with job-related posts (such as "jobs", "getfedihired", "vacancy", etc.) Those job posts are then searchable on the Flockingbird website ( https://search.flockingbird.social/ ). It's definitely worth checking out! #TwitterMigration #Mastodon #FediTips #Tips #Fediverse
@ajsadauskas @blenderbrit we don't have the part where you can list yourself as job seeker, though.
Indexing profiles needs thorough implementation to avoid privacy conflicts. We did not implement it thoroughly yet. So removed it for now.
We do index all job listings, still, though.
@flockingbird @blenderbrit Just out of curiousity, is there a list somewhere of the hashtags that make jobs appear on Flockingbird?
Is it just hashtag job/jobs/vacancy? Or are there others?
@ajsadauskas @blenderbrit there are others.
They are in the open source repo¹, but we chose not to advertise the whole list, so we have some freedom to tune this. We change them often. # vacancy is the only one we'll guarantee ;)

As long as you promise (or at least consider the ramifications) to use the word #Fediverse, instead of mastodon, except when specifically referring the the server platform itself, I'mma happy to help and boosting you right now 🙂
Okay you're on the honor system, coz obviously, you never actually agreed so my demand is unenforceable, but do please consider that there's no such thing as a mastodon network > it's the "Fediverse" 👍
@blenderbrit
You may want to look at these. 80 open jobs. Eventually one fits your skillset.

Best of luck!
@blenderbrit that sucks, man. It's happened to me twice in the last 18 months so I sympathise. Good news is there's lots out there for a man of your talents.
As others have suggested, LinkedIn is worth the effort - spring for Premium, too. You can alwaus cancel once you're sorted.
How are your motion design skills? I see lots of those sorts of jobs around.
Sorry to hear about this development. I hope you get back on your feet soo boss
Wishing you success in your next search and in all ramifications
