# Diversity & Inclusion

### We Believe That Diversity is More Than A Checklist Item

While we celebrate diversity in our team across race, gender, age, religion, and identity, we believe that building a diverse team means building a team full of unique backgrounds and life experiences. Diversity can't be boiled down to a checklist.

We are committed to hiring humans who come from different walks of life, have their own unique experiences, and show up with a fresh perspective on how to best support our customers.

### We Are Committed to Creating an Equal Level Playing Field

As a business, we are committed to doing what we can to build a level playing field for everyone on our team.

We are creating a space where everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed, and we are removing barriers that have long held back many people.

What does this mean?

- We don't believe that the highest credential automatically means the best fit for a role.
- Rather than solely relying on a resume, we believe in working sessions that map to a role's day-to-day work to give candidates a chance to share their skills.
- We believe in second chances. If your interview didn't go well, we'd love to see you grow your skills and try again in a few months.
- We take chances on people when we see potential and we design opportunities to make it a success (like a contract-to-hire path).
- We look for candidates both internally and externally when we open new roles.
- We closely monitor compensation to ensure individuals are compensated based on what they deliver.

### We Hire Outside of the Traditional Norms and Encourage People with Diverse Backgrounds to Apply

We care that you have a positive attitude, bring curiosity to your role, and are committed to supporting customers and team members.

It does not matter to us if...

- Your background is non-traditional  
- You have gaps in your resume  
- You're a parent with kids running around that may or may not end up in your video call  
- You don't have a college degree or you didn't finish your program  
- You are older and are hesitant to apply due to ageism in the job market  
- You have a criminal history and are worried you won't be able to get a job  
- You are a veteran and you're nervous about finding a company that will support you while you adjust  
- You have medical or health differences and you might have specific requirements to accommodate  
- You're still getting comfortable with yourself and who you are  
- You grew up speaking a different language and you're still learning english  
- You don't fit in any of these boxes
