Only applications submitted on our website or job boards where this has been posted will be reviewed.
Research shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women/other underrepresented individuals only apply when they meet 100% of them. We believe that people of color, people from working-class backgrounds, women, and LGBTQ+ people must be centered in the work we do. Hence, we strongly encourage applications from people with these identities, or who are members of other marginalized communities. If you think you have what it takes, possess transferable skills, and are quick to learn, but don’t necessarily satisfy every requirement or meet every qualification, we would love to hear from you!
