To apply, you must attend a university full-time and be a current Perplexity user. The company says you’ll also need to be a campus leader with strong communication skills, an entrepreneurial spirit, and a passion for technology.
The program is open to any major, but Perplexity will only choose three strategists per campus.
Perplexity says most strategists will not need to commit more than 2 to 3 hours a month.
The application itself is simple. You’ll be asked your name, what campus you attend, your current year in school, your social media handles, your activities or clubs involvement, and a brief explanation as to why you want to join the program. You can apply here.
