FAQs
Is there an age or year group restriction?
We don’t discriminate on age or year group. You can be first or final year at university or reskilling through a bootcamp. What matters is that you are interested in data science and technology and have *some* level of skills.
What skills or experience do I need to join?
You don’t need any work experience, that’s the whole point. And you don’t need to be a genius in math or any particular programming language. You need to have some basic understanding of programming and data analysis and an appetite to learn.
We will ask to see a tech-based project that you’ve previously done (as part of your education, hobby, etc) to gauge your competency.
How will you help me get a job?
We will provide a variety of project opportunities for you to take part in. Some will be competitions, some will be paid work, and some will be job simulations. Based on the projects you submit to your portfolio, our platform will generate your skills profile. Employers will have access to these and will reach out directly to you. Soon, you will also be able to reach out directly to your ideal employers.
How do I earn rewards? What kind of rewards?
Each project will have it’s own prizes set by its associated companies. This may include: discounts, merch, vouchers, cash, and more.
