#Wynncraft Staff Application conundrum

So Fruma has been delayed again and you were offering positions in the staff for people to work on the update.
My question is why have detailed applications for all the positions but if you actually want to get paid for them you have to send out your resume?
Would it make more sense to fill out the apps and send out an email that you're looking for a paid position?

Edit: okay it did say on the discord. but why can't it say the same info on the page itself?

not so long time ago, most CT was volunteer, which meant that they didn't recieved any money, the ones recieving money aren't volunteers, they are workers and since that is a formal position, they need to follow a job application proccedure

most ct is still volunteer lol

#

they do?
well why don't they tell us what they're looking for because it's pain in the a to make a resume for a job there's no difinite title and resonsibilites

you could still ask anyways, not all works have that info always on their post anyways

I'm talking about how are you supposed to submit a job application where you don't know what they're looking for.

candid stirrup
#

Furthermore we still don't know which positions ARE paid.

gang i'm gonna be for real if clicking on a button is a struggle for you i don't think you're the right fit for this job

like if you only read the title of a job application, you won't get a job, as easy as that, most jobs even ask you to investigate the corporation

serene rover
#

might as well give the role for free vro

dusty talon
#

srry i had to use it

#

if someone was interested in lets just say modeler, they would look, if they don't find anything they would ask, here and at every game company

okay look:
you have a page that says positions applications
on top of the page it says to send out your resume for paid positions.
That would imply that none of the positions below are paid.
Only when you actually go to one of the apps you realise that they can be paid.
Imagine going to one of the apps and seeing it is voluntary and thiniking that all of them are, since the first page said that you should send out a resume to the mail.
Can you see how it can be confusing?

if you read a job and only read the tittle without the qualifications or the payment, you are not doing a good job

im ngl the filter seems to have worked

dusty talon
#

there is not a single one of them saying "Voluntario" (volunteer)

#

if you open one, the payment is after a lot of text

#

is on "ofrecemos" (we offer)

dusty talon

yea true i lied

glass hinge
#

modeler, animator, and texture artist are all on there, and those are paid

plush gyro
#

they should pay scripters i think

glass hinge
#

i do think that the volunteer ones should have some highlighted text at the top saying that they are volunteer positions but thats about it

how much do these positions actually pay?

#

12 le a year

#

too generous

candid stirrup
#

would be good to get an actual number

#

I don't think the numbers are public

#

Given that its probably commission based (to my knowledge) theres not really a set payment

#

its gonna depend given the work done and the scale and everything

#

its not like wynn is paying a biweekly salary or anything

#

except to devs maybe

How would it not be commission based lol?

Look at art commissions

#

On Twitter or whatever

candid stirrup
#

Yeah, yeah.
I guess I was thinking too much about selling cars xwx

#

I'd think that the paid positions could just be added onto the website

#

rather than just cold emailing

I myself had worked with comisions on documentations, however i just hate it because there is no economic stability

I get paid to comment in constructive feedback

I get quarterly bonuses based on 🔥 reaction count

well i asked a serious question
it would be nice to actually know how much Wynn is offering to pay. it's a good incentive to know how much you can earn

#

why?

#

#

I mean wouldn't you like to be actually told right off the bat what you would be making?

#

real

fervent pebble
#

With commissions its at least valid because pay would depend on alot of factors

#

Different twitter artists receive different pay for their works for example

candid stirrup
fervent pebble
#

A salary position would probably just care about education and experience so idk why with those posted on job listings they still dont reveal salary ranges

candid stirrup
#

probably true

I meant the jobs IM looking at in america, my fault

candid stirrup
#

their whole work culture sucks

fervent pebble
#

Kind of like twitter commissions for smaller artists

candid stirrup
#

whole work culture right now is extremely toxic and I can't understand why so many people are shitting on trying to make it easier for employeees to find a job and learn how much they can get paid

fervent pebble
#

Being toxic to eachother is exactly how you grow on twitter,
And linkedin is just corporate twitter

candid stirrup
#

It's like enforced way of thinking by the corpos to think that wanting to have easier time looking for a job is lazy and you should waste your time because that's the required proccess. Taking all the work from the employer unto the employee so the employer doesn't have to do anything and if anyone disagrees the conditioned people will bark them down for going against the grain.

Japan resignation agency final boss

#

I dont mean to diminish the value of wynncraft here but asking wynn to post pay is kinda meaningless in the grand scheme of things

Besides, the actual work culture there may not even be toxic for all we know

#

Big tech companies and corporations are the actual issue

#

Which then all goes away if you resign and look for a different job because you’re a human being lol

#

I mean maybe you can say “i worked overtime alot at this company” in your resume but i assume in japan, leaving a job leaves you without their reference

#

At least when you overclock old hardware, you’re giving it good working conditions (ventilation and cooling)

dusty talon
#

at least they get pay for that, here in Mexico most jobs doesn't pay extra hours, we even had to implement the first law in the world that obligated the employer to have chairs in the workplace bc a lot of works didn't include that

#

Plus work toxicity and employers not posting pay are different problems

I feel like you mostly join the wynncraft team as a passion thing, and you get payed for roles that require significant investment or skill, and it probably varies quite a bit individually. Unless you're one of the 3 devs its probably not your actual job

#

And like having important info in title can be nice when you're going through a lot of job postings, but this is their own platform, with like 3 jobs, with all the info if you take 3 mins to read, and it keeps the title clean
