@jwildeboer That’s what I see too—I’ve been organizing Outreachy for almost six and a half years. I have managed almost 700 successful internships in FOSS. We receive almost 15,000 applications a year. I witness their enthusiasm and their hard work every single day.
The thing I struggle with the most right now? Finding proper mentorship now that I’m at a mid-senior level. Breaking into more leadership roles. Finding that “one chance” someone’s willing to give.
