The Fellowship Selection Pipeline
Five stages. No shortcuts. Proof over promises.
We don't select people on what they claim to know. We evaluate what they can actually create. Every applicant goes through a division-specific practical assessment.
- 01Stage 01 — Application & Expression of Interest
Initial screening
Background, interests, previous work, availability, and what you want to build. - 02Stage 02 — Division-Specific Challenge
Practical assessment
A real task in your division. Tech ships code, Product ships flows and UI, Creative ships a mini-launch. - 03Stage 03 — Evaluation & Shortlisting
Quality assessment
We judge submissions on craft, thought, execution, and originality — never on marks alone. - 04Stage 04 — Founder Interaction
Commitment assessment
Ambitions, availability, working style, ownership mentality, collaboration. - 05Stage 05 — Fellowship Induction
Final selection
Founding cohort enters with division, responsibilities, and first objectives.
