2. Data “hunters”
Data is like the “gold of the 21st century”, and in the metaverse, its importance is even greater. “To ensure possession of all your data, data ‘hunters’ arrive, who will roam the virtual world in search of your personal information. These hunters will have to be specialized in legal matters and in data extraction ”, explains Adecco.

3. Metamedics
In theory, our biometric and physical data will be available in our avatars. This possibility will allow health professionals, such as doctors, to carry out diagnoses and tests remotely, as well as potential treatments.

Interaction and mobility are crucial factors for the metaverse. In this sense, constructions — which can be of objects, places, or experiences — need to be developed to make the metaverse a reality.

Concerts, exhibitions, and conferences have already taken place in the metaverse. A trend that, estimates the recruiter, will continue to grow. For this very reason, event directors and coordinators who understand this new reality will be in great demand.
6. Metaverse Scientist
The metaverse is a digital replica of reality. “A scientist specialized in research in this area will be essential and will have to be able to create an architecture that brings together all the necessary skills : software engineering, computer engineering, game development, data science, machine learning, computer vision, deep learning and big date.”
7. Ecosystem Creator
The creator of ecosystems, in turn, will be designing and bringing to reality the possibilities presented by the metaverse . “Ensuring that the infrastructures can support the technological connections, and that their users can interoperate effectively, will imply not only lobbying efforts, but also an in-depth knowledge of the XR industry (the new technological industry that includes areas such as augmented reality or the metaverse)”, details Adecco. The ecosystem creator will also be responsible for convincing governments of the new potential of the metaverse.
8. Security Manager
Privacy-related issues have always accompanied Internet-related issues. In the metaverse, the level is even higher. Ensuring safety will be central to living and working comfortably in this new complex world and, for that, the safety manager will be an essential part.

Cameras, microphones, sensors, headsets… . In the metaverse, hardware will be as necessary as programming. To respond to this new need, someone needs to create these tools.
10. Creator of worlds
“The name of this new work can be both fabulous and terrifying. A world maker in the metaverse will be similar to a video game programmer, but with higher responsibilities .” Knowing how to think about the future will be key to this role, as it will be essential to consider all the social impacts and possibilities that this new world will bring.
11. Ad Blockers
“ With their virtual and physical selves very close, advertisers will want to reach their target with targeted and permanent advertising. Virtual ad blockers will therefore be essential to escape this attack”, concludes Adecco.
