women and people of color are less likely to apply for jobs unless
they believe they can perform every job description task. We are

consider an equivalent combination of knowledge, skills, education,
and experience to meet minimum qualifications. If you are
interested in applying, we encourage you to think broadly about
your background and skill set for the role.
