U.S. Digital Response civic tech talent research report

At the end of last year we partnered with U.S. Digital Response (USDR) to investigate the motivations of technologists looking to find work in civic tech, and learn from their experiences of seeking and applying for jobs in 2024. We conducted in-depth interviews with participants across various disciplines and co-authored a report on our findings.
