**Did you know:**

[Some studies](https://hbr.org/2014/08/why-women-dont-apply-for-jobs-unless-
theyre-100-qualified) indicate that the average female-identifying person will
apply to a job only if they feel that they qualify for 100% of the
requirements? Persons of color experience this at an even higher rate. Whereas
male-identifying people will apply if they feel that they qualify for 60% or
more of the requirements.



Now you (may) know something new, and we want to encourage anyone who feels
that they _might_ be qualified for the role to apply. You may be surprised!
