Add back the application form questions

[segdeha]

On the old apply page (what is now the participate page), we used to list the questions people are asked on our application form.

I just got an email from someone asking what the questions are and was about to write her back to say “they’re on our website!” when I decided to double check. Not there! 😬

Can we please add them back?

Here’s the copy from the old website:

Get ready!

Here are the questions we’ll be asking you to answer:

1. Name
2. Pronouns – Your identity is important to us.
3. Region – Depending on mentor availability, we run teams in North America, Latin America, and Europe/Africa.
4. Time zone – Our teams are based in North America, Latin America (in Spanish), and European/African time zones. 🌎🌍
5. Do you agree to abide by The Collab Lab Code of Conduct? – This is non-negotiable. If you want to participate, you must agree to follow the Code of Conduct.
6. Link to a code repository (e.g., GitHub, Gitlab, Bitbucket, etc.) or other example of your work – We use GitHub to host our projects, but mostly this question is about seeing examples of your work so feel free to point us to anything that represents you well. Your best bet is to link directly to a React project. Thanks!
7. What do you hope to learn from participating in The Collab Lab? – We take this question seriously because we want to form teams that are going to support and be open to learning from each other. We are interested in your motivations and aspirations, so help us get to know you!
8. What have you done to learn coding so far? – It’s super helpful for us to understand your coding journey. There is no right or wrong answer to this one!

I’m guessing we left the text out because the new design doesn’t make it clear how to handle an additional section on the page. I’m not sure whether this copy should be added to one of the existing sections or whether we should add a new section with a difference background color?

Had another inquiry about this information today. Would love to get a solve deployed, even if it’s not perfect, to cut down on the number of emails I need to respond to.
