Assignment 1:1s We are developing more spaces for Documenters to connect with staff (India, Grace or Natalie) for one-on-one for assignment-specific support and verbal feedback. These calls are optional but highly encouraged for new Documenters, to connect what you learned in our orientation/training with an actual assignment (more experienced Documenters are also welcome to sign up).
Each call usually lasts 15-30 minutes and if you take advantage of them we’ll add the time to your total assignment pay hours.
- Pre-assignment call: walk through how to do pre-research, find relevant meeting information, address other common questions
- Post-assignment call: Debrief your experience, learnings, questions and strategies for next time
If you have the time/interest in doing either/both calls, you can sign up for an assignment one-on-one slot at www.calendly.com/chidocumenters.
