Jobs at Fieldguide

What Fieldguide's application asks

Across the one application form Otto has filled at Fieldguide: 18 distinct questions, 6 of them usually required. A single application works out at about 1 minute once you have your details to hand. It runs on Ashby.

6 are Fieldguide’s own, not boxes every form has:

• where did you hear about fieldguide?
• if you were referred to fieldguide, who were you referred by?
• if needed, please share the porfolio password.
• preferred pronouns
• legal name
• will you now or in the future require visa sponsorship for employment in the united states?

Read off the forms themselves, last checked 2026-09-14, because Otto fills them in and has to read them first. Roles differ, so the estimate is per application rather than for the list above: each question counts for its cost times how often this employer actually requires it. A written answer is 2½ minutes, a dropdown 12 seconds, a yes/no 5 seconds, attaching a file 45 seconds. The list leaves out name-and-email boxes and anything Ashby puts on every employer’s form.
