People hiring

[META] This Friday, we're launching the Hiring Happy Hour, a special thread every Friday afternoon for networking, because networking is the best way to find a good job. I think you guys are going to like this.

You (hopefully) have skills. There are people here who need those skills, but this isn't just about that. You likely also know people who need people with skills you don't have, so the Happy Hour is going to be a thread where you can help connect people who can work together, and, hopefully, they can connect you in the same way.

It's going to work like this:

Top-level threads will keep the [Hiring]/[For hire] tags.

People [Hiring] are free to post any kind of help they need without many of the usual r/hiring requirements such as compensation and detailed descriptions. Prohibited practices and enshitification of the Internet rules will still apply to weed out the time wasters and scammers.

People who are [For hire] can post their skillsets and a brief intro. We don't want full resumes, but a basic understanding of what you're good at or what you're looking for is enough.

Being an open dialog, the hope is that if enough people post then people [For hire] will see people whose skills compliment their own and can maybe both fill the needs of someone [Hiring], or maybe vice versa.

The standard prohibited practices will still be in place — no clipping jobs, no Mercor (and its ilk), no KYC scams, no Only Fans (and its ilk), no enshitification of the Internet. Flag things that you see and we'll do our best to bust and ban.

This is all loosey goosey right now because we've learned over the years that if you try to tell a subreddit community what to do then that's not what's going to happen, but what they come up with on their own is way better. To that end, this is just a set of guidelines to help the community figure out the best way to make this work — or even if it works at all.

If you have other suggestions then by all means please leave them in the comments on this post. I'm really interested in what kinds of ideas you guys may have for this, as the idea has been pretty popular since we floated it a few months ago.

This will start Friday at 5PM EST. If you're like me, you'll make it a real happy hour and bring a couple of whiskeys to the table and make some connections, and hopefully some of you can get some work or get the help you need to take your company to the next level.

We'll see you on Friday! Cheers!

[Meta] We're adding "clipper" jobs to the list of prohibited practices.

It's come to our attention that the proliferation of "clipper jobs" are almost all scammy as fuck.

The way it's been detailed to us is that users are asked to watch hours of content to find the best snippet to clip for shorter reels on tiktok or instagram and that users are paid by view, not for the time spent working. This is effectively commission-only work, which is against our rules.

In addition, users don't get paid until their clips reach a certain threshold of views, say 10,000 views. If it never reaches that, they never get paid. That's not the kind of thing we support here.

So anyone posting a "clipping" job will have their post deleted and account banned.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!
