How we screen applicants:
Technical expertise
We look for professional and educational qualifications, and evidence of technical competence through portfolios and published work.
Video interview
Those who make it through the technical review are put through a video interview. Here we assess empathy, communication skills, and passion for their field.
Guidance and Training
Mentors who make it through the video interview are provided with resources to enhance their mentorship skills.
