Thanks for applying to become a Mozilla Rep. Based on the information you submitted, Based on Onboarding team vote, the Mozilla Reps Council agreed to give you a week for documenting your contribution for the last 6 months and attach it here in the application. It can be in a comment with links, it can be in a Google Document (shared linked), or some blog posts.

Not suited for Reps

<to be done>

Not clear about goals

Hi <name>,
we reviewed your application and we think that you are not ready to became a Rep.
As Rep is important to have clear goals and experience to accomplish them and in your application this seems not clear now.

We suggest to you to wait before apply again and try to get involved more in Mozilla in a specific area, to be ready for the role as a community mobilizer or functional doer and get more experience.

Best regards,

Once that is done, you can start to create events and reports on the portal. Feel free to ping me if you have any questions or need help. :)

After applicant has created profile

Hi <name>,

You are now in the onboarding phase. This means that we ask you to report all Reps related activities you are doing on the Reps portal. 

Additionally we want to better guide you, therefore we ask all Reps in Orientation Period to submit a plan on what you will be working on in the next few months. This is not binding, of course you can do things not on the plan as well. This allows us to give feedback and suggestions for your planned activities.

I have created a template here: http://bit.ly/RepsWebinarPlanTemplate

Please fill this out by making a copy of the document within the next week and send me the link to it so I can give feedback. Please make sure that the permissions are set to include either "Everyone with the link can comment" or at least includes me.

Applicant is not replying after 3 weeks (also if approved or with a reps profile)

Hi <name>,
As we haven't heard back from you (3 weeks from our last message), I'm closing this application as rejected for now.
If you are still interested and have time for the Reps program, please file a new application with a link to this one, so we can continue where we left off.

Thanks for your understanding,
<your name>

Applicant is not ready to close the onboarding period

Hi <name>,
After looking at your Reps plan and what you reported as done in your Reps profile, the council feels you have not done enough in the onboarding period.
With your mentor you will need to do a new reps plan that is much more specific and focused. The new plan needs to focus on Mozilla and help growing your community. 

As council we choose to give you <number> more months for the onboarding period for you to work from your new plan. At the end we will evaluate if your application for the program is successful.
