“Recruiters must keep watch over candidates which can be open and enthusiastic in regards to the business and will even contemplate candidates that don’t have any prior expertise in crypto/blockchain. We are fairly early to have blockchain veterans within the house and it’s higher to rent expertise that’s keen to be taught and develop,” the Cypher Capital chief pointed.
