Application Process

The staff application process has been split into 4 simple parts, explained below.
Part 1 - Waiting Phase. After posting your application, it will enter the "Waiting Phase". This phase shouldn't be more than 4 days long, as the staff managers (administrators) are making a decision on whether to accept you at this point. You will be notified if you pass or fail this phase.
Part 2 - Interview Stage. If your application is accepted, you will be invited into the Evolve Staff discord to attend an interview. You'll have the chance to communicate to select staff members and others that made it to this stage. We formed the interview process to last around 5-10 minutes, and the interview will dive deeper into your application if we feel some details are missing. You can pass or fail this phase.
Part 3 - Training Phase. If you pass the interview stage, you're half way there! You now take part in our training phase. We go over the basics of how moderating Evolve works and also touch up on things you may have gotten wrong in your interview. We teach you everything you need to know about Evolve that you didn't already. You cannot "fail" this phase unless something serious pops up.
Part 4 - Helper Trial. Now that you're fully trained, you're ready to become a helper! You'll be a helper for 2 weeks maximum. We use this phase to test how well you are as a staff member in both moderation and helping users out. You will have an assigned mentor to help you, so feel free to ask them questions. You can pass or fail this phase. Passing means you become a moderator and have access to deep further into the staff team. Failing means that you will unfortunately be demoted.
