• Recommended length: 2–3 minutes.
• Style is up to you! It can be casual or polished, filmed on a phone or edited in a studio. We’re not grading production quality — we’re interested in your energy, creativity, and story.
• You might show off your robot, team workspace, outreach activities, or interview team members.
