Any Ideas on where I can find a job in Bitcoin
I currently work as a Formalities Specialist at an Intellectual property law firm.
I have a military and banking background and prefer remote work.
I've used Indeed/Pomp Crypto Jobs/Bitcoiner Jobs/Crypto Currency Jobs as resources
I'm tipping any helpful comments and advice,
What was the result/feedback of your efforts on Bitcoiner Jobs?

Haven't found too many opportunities, but I'm attempting to apply to a job a day.

You mean you haven't found jobs that are a good fit for your skills? What kind of opportunities are you looking for specifically?

I've been looking at mostly customer service, I've applied to Casa and Kraken so far.
I'm also contracted as an Internet Safety Evaluator with Telus International, and have experimented with running a soleprop to take advantage of remote side hustles.
I'm pretty much looking for anything that I can get, that will put me in the Bitcoin space
Was looking into Compass mining and different exchanges as well.

Okay, a few tips:
- apply for things you're interested in doing but are maybe not entirely qualified for yet - it's better to overshoot a bit and you might be a better fit than you think
- make a list of all the bitcoin companies you're aware of/interested in and visit their websites and look for a career page, e.g. https://unchained.com/careers/open-jobs/ (bitcoiner jobs has a proper subset of all available jobs)
- even if they don't have a job listed that sounds right - it doesn't hurt to write a short email via their email address/contact form on their webpage asking if they are hiring for such and such role
- If you're near a bitcoin meetup go there, network, and let people know you're looking for a job
