FAQs
-
When will I receive an interview?You may hear back as soon as within the week or as late as a few months later. The timing of when you hear back from us depends on the number of companies we partner with, the number of applicants we receive, and your own interests and experience. This means that not everyone will receive an interview, and the timing of when you receive an interview is not a reflection of your qualifications.
-
Are the roles online or in-person?Most of the positions offered are remote, but it depends on the company. When offered an interview from a company, they will indicate their preference: remote, hybrid, or in-person.
-
Will I be able to choose from a list of start-ups?No, but we do take your interests and skills into consideration and then use that to generate the best matches for you. Ultimately, you get to decide which offers to accept!
-
What do you get if you accept a full-time offer with one of our startup partners?Candidates who accept full-time offers with one of our partners get access to a private network of top-tier female talent.

-
What does the application process look like?The full application process includes a written application (here), an interview with the startup(s) you are matched to, and, in some cases, a preliminary contract position before being given a formal full-time offer to ensure that you’re a good fit for the company.
-
Do I have to be attending university to apply?No, it’s not a requirement to apply. However, most companies are looking for people with prior experience in the role that they are applying for. Pursuing or having a college degree is not necessary for some roles, but can be advantageous to have!

-
Why is it better to have early career talent at my company?Top new grad talent demand cheaper salaries, yet output at equal or greater performance than average, mid-level talent. Moreover, this incoming generation, Gen Zers, know the ins and outs of the trends and appeals of the current market, making them critical for business. User testing and strategic consulting are built into every role. Moreover, young talent is more digitally nimble and better at learning things they don’t know. They understand what needs to be done with minimal explanation compared to offshore talent or short-term freelancers/contractors and have a higher likelihood to fit into your company’s culture and goals long-term.
-
How can I afford to think about diversity as a resource strapped startup?Diversity becomes a high-cost challenge at scale so it’s important for companies to think about it from day one. We’re specifically focused on making it easy for startups to think about this early in their journey without compromising on their talent bar or paying more than they would to hire any other top talent. We are focused on this niche audience of Gen Z women because we understand them and their needs the best to successfully help startups without high salaries or brand prestige attract top talent. Unlike other existing talent solutions, we are equally committed to matching you with the best talent for your needs as we are to helping you close and retain the candidate you want in the long run.

We already have access to candidates. Why should we get candidates from your network?With a <1% acceptance rate into our network, we’re able to supply your company with a level of female talent you can’t find anywhere else. Every month, we get over 1700+ applicants who want to work for companies that partner with Generation She to gain access to our events and our vibrant global community of ambitious women to learn and grow with. When you offer early career talent professional development, mentorship, and community, they view their role at your company at a much higher value than what you pay them and see your offer as comparable to their existing offers at Big Tech companies! Moreover, giving them this meaningful experience encourages them to stay long term at your company resulting in lower turnover, cost effective future recruiting, and most importantly, more competitive talent at your company. The truth is, early startups and small teams have a lot of sh*t to do. You don’t have the resources or time to bootstrap intern programs and HR managers to brand their programs and secure the same competitive talent that university programs at Facebook and Google can secure. However, even though you have small budgets right now, you still need great talent! We want to help support you in that goal.
