My Onboarding Experience as a New Docs Contributor to AsyncAPI

on YouTube ↗21m

" summary

Selection comes down to how onboarding actually works not fluff: applicants join via Google Season of Docs, receive one-on-one Zooms and biweekly syncs with mentors, attend a four-part onboarding workshop that demos AsyncAPI Studio and the API CLI, get curated articles and Slack help that produce answers within hours, and complete real documentation tasks that get reviewed, merged, and presented at the conference.
