Legit

The concept is simple: How do we know that someones experience is legit? Did you really work for MetaMask? Were you the last one on the dance floor at rAAVE in Lisbon? Did we submit our hack project to ETHGlobal?

Legit is a platform that uses blockchain technology to verify professional skills, jobs, and education and collect them in one place. It simplifies the CV creation process by allowing companies and entities to cross-validate a user's achievements. This way, the user only needs to request approval from their collaborators to verify their professional status, such as completing a Hackathon or educational course.

One of the key challenges in the current systems is that individuals often falsely claim to have certain skills and job experiences, which makes it difficult for employers to trust and hire them. Legit creates a transparent reputation system for professionals, making it easier for employers to hire the right candidates.

The core contract is written in Solidity and represents user activity in two ways: past experience like education, job or event attendance and professional skills that should be validated by user’s colleagues. User can claim that he has certain experience by creating a request that eventually should be validated by the company where he was working/studying/participating. When it’s done, the request gets the Done status and user aquires his validated experience.

The contract is deployed to Scroll.io, Linea, Polygon.

We use The Graph to parse events and create queries.

Frontend was created using Next.js with TypeScript, MetaMask SDK, Ethers.js, and all CSS styles and component designs were built from scratch based on Illustrator and Figma wireframe prototypes. We had a mobile-first user experience in mind while designing since we aim this platform to be simple and something you can easily use on-the-go.

We were using NounsDAO in our designs, since the platform is aiming to be well suited for DAOs for example.
