Work-iDID : Job Experience Tracker

[GENERAL] Summarize your solution to the problem.

A tool will be created in Atala PRISM to encourage Projects/Business to become Issuers of DID and at the same time be able to Verify Credentials. Resources will become Holders of VC.

[GENERAL] Summarize your relevant experience.

Our team members at the moment:

• Atala Prism Pioneer and Plutus Pioneer. Additional experience: 18 years as SAP Developer.
• Front-End Web Developer with 12 Year of experience.
• Graphic Designer 3 years of experience.

[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

In our current markets, is becoming more common to have contractors based per project or per period. With the speed of busines' evolution it could be challenging for some Companies or Recruiters to ensure that the resoruces they are hiring comply with the required skills.

Also, one of the techniques to speed up the hiring process is to search for key words on text documents, and this could leave out potential resources with better skill set but using different wording.

Atala PRISM offers a prime level Blockchain for DID Technology, this has motivated us to build a decentralized CV since we are used to the contractor/remote environment.

The output will be to create, verify or hold VCs(Verifiable Credentials) created with Atala PRISM as base blockchain and used on a daily basis by Employers and Employees to certify and track skills.

The outcome will be to pivot Atala PRISM to mainstream, starting with blockchain projects in order to have users that are aware of blockchain dynamics and be able to improve UX for daily users.

[IMPACT] Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.

Become the preference tool for Companies to verify and issue VCs keeping the required privacy of HR data without handling it to 3rd parties.

Being able to search for desirable skills or certifications that are published.

Employees would be able to publish DIDs to allow recruiters to find them or they can keep them private with unpublished options.

With these points the solution should be able to cover the next challenges: Marketplace, Social Media and many others.

By 'Many others' its meant to be a decentralized resumé.

[IMPACT] What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?

Each profession has an Authority to issue credentials, and there are some professions more strict than others to deliver credentials. This is a real challenge with sectors as Health or Law, where each country has it's own standards.

In order to promote addoption, the fair play will be to target markets of IT and Office resources. Starting with blockchain Business/Projects where users will be more familiar with seed phrases and crypto wallets.

[FEASIBILITY] Please provide a detailed plan, including timeline and key milestones for delivering your proposal.

0-2 Months - Focus to setup the team,

0-4 Months - Initial take of requirements. Complete the process flow and design.

4-8 Months - Create/set the first looks of the tool, trying to have something functional, giving priority on functioning over UX.

6-7 Months - Start engaging with Cardano Projects to start using it. Review Process Flow and Requirements.

8-10 Months - Improve UX. Get feedback from our users and customers.

10-12+ Months - If everything is looking fine. Start engaging with Projects outside Cardano. First will be trying with Blockchain Projects that have some relation with Cardano, like Ergo or Coti.

[FEASIBILITY] If you are funded, will you return to Catalyst in a later round for further funding? Please explain why / why not.

The idea of the project will be to be able to be self-sustained. The utilization of the tool should be giving enough cashflow to keep covering our expenses. How are we going to do that? It's not defined yet. Could be subscription, per transaction, utility token. My take is to get what is more convenient for decentralization.

[FEASIBILITY] Are you or any member of your team working on any other proposals in this Fund9?

[FEASIBILITY] Are you or your team working on any other proposals from previous Funds?

[AUDITABILITY] Please describe what you will measure to track your project's progress, and how will you measure these?

Progress to be done and tracked down in Project's Github repository.

Cardano's Projects/Business would be adopting this tool to issue/verify DID with their resources.

[AUDITABILITY] What does success for this project look like?

• Business or Companies having in their 'Contact Us'(Or a similar section) a reference of their DID or main DIDs allowing everybody to use them to verify credentials issued by them.
• Or could be a new Verification Section that is already integrated and running in their webpages.

[AUDITABILITY] Please provide information on whether this proposal is a continuation of a previously funded project in Catalyst or an entirely new one.

No, we haven't logged a proposal in previous Fund rounds.
