Chingu looks for: Grit & Adaptability
The tech landscape is changing so fast and only going to increase its pace.

This means that the most important skill to have is not a particular Javascript framework or programming language, but the ability to adapt to changing environments and learn what is needed to solve the challenge and complete the project.

This is why we look for people who get excited by challenges and who will finish a project *regardless* of the challenges that arise (and challenges always arise).
If we asked your friends, how dependable in a team project do you think they'd rate you? *
Not dependable at all.
VERY dependable
Would you prefer to work on a clone project or a new idea to create impact?
Clear selection
Would you like to help improve the Build-to-Learn project experience? *
Please add your Github username below: *
In order to support teams better in Voyage, we're going to check in with every member once a week via a short 3-5 question Check-in Form (5 minutes). If accepted, do you agree to fill this form out once a week for the duration of the cohort? (Note: due to the importance of being able to support teams, we will not accept people who say no to this question.) *
What are your favorite 3 interests?  (Ex. Learning languages, coding, running) Note: We'll use this to help optimally organize teams. *
What did you study/work in before? Ex. Marketing, Computer Science, Writing, Nothing before coding *
Do you have any interest in being a Project Manager for a Remote Dev Team? *
What does success look like for you for this Chingu Voyage? *

For past members - Have you been a part of a Chingu cohort/Voyage before? If so, please add the slack username you used here. (ex. @jdmedlock)
For past members - (OPTIONAL) I'd love your advice. We live for continuous improvement and believe we have an unique opportunity to create a collaboration "gym" on the web. What is one thing you'd do to improve Chingu?
For past members: Please share anything you enjoyed about the cohorts here (so I can try to make sure that it continues to happen). It can be any thoughts, stories, features, etc. :)
If you have any extra notes or comments, please add them here. (ex. "I will be away the first week")
