With an open-door policy, any community member can become an expert on the platform, upon passing the vetting procedure. The procedure itself will not be anything unfamiliar. It will begin with an application similar to that when applying for a job and selecting the appropriate field of expertise.
To move forward, applicants are requested to upload at least 3 examples of their work in order to validate their experience. The format can vary depending on the field the applicant is working in, for example, GitHub links for developers, visual portfolio for designers, and text content pieces for marketers.
When an application is submitted and passes the initial vetting, community members can cast their vote to approve or deny the application within a 7-day window of it becoming available to the public. Should an applicant receive enough positive votes their application is approved and they are ready to work on the platform.
