Hi Raven, as a video creator here's the full breakdown: STEP 1: WARMUP MY ACCOUNT: Week 1: join beginner friendly subreddits. Here's the full list: reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/w/i… From day 5, start leaving a few comments here and there — nothing too much, just 2 to 4 a day to keep it natural. Week 2: upvotes and dropping meaningful comments everyday. Between 7-8. Weeks 3-4: Upvote posts and dropping meaningful comments every day — aim for 10 to 15. Spend time browsing the subreddits in video editing. No need to join, just observe. Pay close attention to the comments that get the most upvotes and start noticing what they have in common — the tone, the length, the way they're structured. STEP 2: START ENGAGING: Weeks 5-6: By this point, my account should be at least 30 days old and have a minimum of 100 karma. Join the following subreddits: A-the ones I promote social media management services like : r/freelanceforhire r/B2bforhire r/hireforgigs r/hiring r/lookingforjobs r/forhirefreelance r/forhire2 r/anywherejobs r/remoteworkers r/Atljobs r/donedirtcheap r/Austin jobs r/remotejobs r/torontojobs r/Detroit jobs And more niche subreddits like : r/creatorservices r/Findvideoeditors r/videoEditors_forhire r/remoteworks(mainly to find opportunities not to promote) r/hireAneditor r/videoEditor_forhire r/YoutubeEditorsforhire Avoid jumping into large communities like r/forhire or r/slavelabour too soon — the rules and moderators are strict, and there's a real chance your account gets shadowbanned before you even get to post anything . Post on these groups twice a week. B- Join the following subreddits and show up there with genuinely helpful comments. r/videoediting r/newtubers r/videography r/creatorsadvice r/founder r/ content creators r/videoeditors r/davinciresolve r/editors r/videoeditingtips r/smallYTchannel Drop 10-15 comments per day in these communities. Have your portfolio and resume ready Look at the educational posts that are already winning in your niche — notice what makes them work, then use those same patterns to build your own. Aim to have two posts ready before next week. Week 7 : This week, go back to the communities where you've been dropping comments and start posting. Keep showing up and sharing value By now, you should be seeing some DMs coming in. Some of those conversations will turn into paying clients, so stay responsive and keep the momentum going. If you sell your services on fiver don't send the link directly in DM . Put the link in a Google doc instead. On payments — never accept money through Telegram. If PayPal isn't available in your country, set up a Fiverr or Upwork account. Both platforms support Payoneer, which works in most countries and keeps everything secure and professional.

The Future Jobs

The Future Jobs @Thefuturejobs_

May 6

A guy from Mumbai worked at 5 startups simultaneously, got paid full-time by all of them, and kept it going for a year. This is the @realsohamparekh story — and every hiring team in tech needs to read it. Soham looked perfect on paper. GSoC contributor, MLH Fellow, Meta speaker, published researcher, open-source founder. A dream hire by every metric recruiters care about. @playgroundAI hired him. He skipped standups, went silent, and delivered almost nothing. They dug into his credentials — gaps everywhere. Fired within a week. But he was already signed at two other YC-backed startups. At the same time. His playbook: → Mouse jigglers to fake activity → AI scripts to handle basic coding tasks → PTO excuses to cover disappearances → Remote work to hide in plain sight After the first founder exposed him on @X , others piled on — YC and non-YC alike. Every single one said the same thing: "He nailed the interviews. He vanished after joining. Smart resume, zero results." x.com/Suhail/status/19402873… Here's the uncomfortable truth: Soham didn't break the hiring system. He found its blindspots. Remote work without accountability. Credential-heavy screening that rewards storytelling over skill. AI tools that lower the bar to fake technical output. He didn't create these gaps — he just walked through them. And he's not alone. He's just the one who got caught. What should hiring teams actually do? → Use trial projects, not just polished interviews → Check references the candidate didn't hand-pick → Evaluate async work samples over vibe-based calls → Look for delivery patterns, not credential patterns For job seekers: this isn't a blueprint. It's a cautionary tale. Your reputation in tech is your most valuable asset. AI can help you fake it short-term. It can't fake your track record. The future of work is moving fast — #AIjobs , #remoteworks , skill-based hiring. The only real edge? Build genuine skills and real credibility. Explore future-ready careers → thefuturejobs.in

PSA: there’s a guy named Soham Parekh (in India) who works at 3-4 startups at the same time. He’s been preying on YC companies and more. Beware. I fired this guy in his first week and told him to stop lying / scamming people. He hasn’t stopped a year later. No more excuses.
